Treatment for hepatitis
First Claim
1. A system that is adapted to strengthen an immune system(s) of one or more patients, the system comprising:
- an enclosure having at least one air-lock that is able to sustain a super-atmospheric environment;
a first gas supply that contains one or more gases;
a gas supply hardware, the gas supply hardware connecting the first gas supply to the enclosure;
a monitoring network that is electrically connected to the enclosure, the gas supply and the gas supply hardware, wherein the monitoring network monitors a status of the enclosure, a status of the gas supply, and a status of the gas supply hardware;
a control system that is electrically connected to the monitoring system, the enclosure and the gas supply hardware, the control system having at least one display screen, at least one processor, and at least one memory, wherein the control system is capable of controlling, and displaying the statuses of, the enclosure, the first gas supply and the gas supply hardware; and
, a treatment program that is at least temporarily stored in the memory and executed by the processor, wherein the treatment program is associated with a content of the first gas supply, and the treatment program defines the super-atmospheric environment to be sustained by the enclosure and a duration of time for sustaining the super-atmospheric environment within the enclosure.

Abstract
A system for administering a treatment to individuals infected with a virus such as hepatitis. The system includes an enclosure and at least one gas supply that is used to create an altered atmospheric environment within the enclosure. The patients walk into the enclosure, the super-atmospheric environment is created with the gas, and the patients remain in the super-atmospheric environment for a predefined length of time. The individuals are subsequently returned at a safe rate to normal atmospheric pressure. The treatment can be repeated daily, monthly or annually depending on the needs of the patient. The system includes a control unit that stores and runs at least one treatment program that helps determine treatment variables such as amount of pressure, length of time and the type of gas or gases. It is believed that the present viral treatment may be able to be used in combination with medications and other viral treatments.

7. An apparatus that is adapted for administration of a treatment that is intended to strengthen immune systems, the apparatus comprising:
-
an enclosure, the enclosure having a first air-lock, the first air-lock being able to sustain a super-atmospheric environment;
a first gas supply that is connected to the enclosure, the first gas supply containing one or more gases; and
,a control system that is connected to the enclosure and the first gas supply, wherein the control system is able to control the super-atmospheric environment within the first air-lock and is able to display duration information, wherein the duration information defines the length of time for maintaining the pressure within the first air-lock. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 13)

14. A method for strengthening a patient'"'"'s immune system so the patient'"'"'s immune system is better able to defend the patient against a viral disease, the method comprising the steps of:
-
placing the patient in an enclosure, wherein the enclosure is able to withstand internal pressures up to 20 atmospheres;
filling the enclosure with at least one gas until the enclosure reaches a desired pressure; and
,having the patient remain in the enclosure, at the desired pressure, for a pre-defined length of time. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
