Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Intact skin with no abnormal openings at the site of primary amputation

    Healed and intact skin at the site of primary amputation without need for more proximal amputation.Healed amputation is defined as epithelialization of the wound examined by a orthopedic surgeon. Level of primary amputation is decided by the surgeon. Planned 2-session amputation, for example Guillotine amputation with a final amputation later is considered being primary amputation. Healed primary amputation will be measured at 12 weeks.

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (23)

  • Intact skin with no abnormal openings at the site of amputation at 6 months

    6 months

  • Intact skin with no abnormal openings at the site of amputation at 9 months

    9 months

  • Intact skin with no abnormal openings at the site of amputation at 1 year

    12 months

  • Time to closed and intact skin at the site of amputation

    1 year

  • Reamputations

    1 year

  • +18 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

30 sessions of Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, 90min treatment at 2,4 ATA(atmosphere absolute) with 100% oxygen.First session must be given within 7 days after initial amputation. Treatment is given as outpatient treatment after discharge from hospital.

Procedure: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Control group will be given standard of care with follow up at the outpatient clinic after discharge from hospital.

Interventions

Breathing 100% oxygen for 30+30+30 min at 2,4 ATA. in a multiplace hyperbaric chamber. Total of 30 sessions

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy
