    This technical project was developed to address the scarcity of equipment focused on hyperbaric oxygen therapy in veterinary clinics, aiming to provide better service to their patients. A functional, safe, and cost-effective prototype of a hyperbaric chamber was designed and constructed in relation to similar existing equipment in the market. For the design of the prototype, the ASME Section VIII Division 1, ASME Section II Part A, and ASME Section IX codes were utilized for the design of pressure vessels, material selection, construction methods, and testing. Additionally, research was conducted on similar devices existing in other countries to aid in the selection of accessories and the establishment of the necessary technical specifications for the operation of a hyperbaric chamber. A design and simulation of a prototype with suitable dimensions and features for the use of small and medium-sized pets were developed using CAD/CAE design software. Subsequently, a list was compiled and materials were selected for the construction of the essential parts and accessories required for the prototype's operation. The prototype was constructed according to the design indicated in the blueprints and following the established construction methods. Functionality tests were conducted to verify the prototype's hermeticity and resistance under operating conditions.
