In order to calculate the impact of a shorter or longer lifetime of the hyperbaric<br />

chamber, a one-way sensitivity analysis was performed. Figure 36 and Figure 37 show<br />

that the impact of the lifetime of the equipment is rather limited.<br />

This is in line with our expectations, as personnel costs are the most important cost<br />

factor of this therapy.<br />
