The Sharm-el-Sheikh Hyperbaric Medical Center specialises in diving related injuries such as Decompression Illness and Barotraumata. The Center also provides a general service to the local population.
In the last five years, the recompression chamber in the center has been one of the busiest in the world and has treated in excess of 1,200 diving injuries. This rise in activity could be linked to the growing popularity of Sharm el-Sheikh for diving holidays.
The center receives students and diving medical physicians from all over the world. It also participates in much needed research.
Interview with Dr. Adel Taher at the Sharm Hyperbaric Chamber. He has two very sophisticated chambers. Great interview.
