Compression, collagen and bacteria-binding: different approaches for wound management.
In May 2016, BSN medical hosted three clinical symposia at the EWMA conference in Bremen, Germany. These introduced the challenges of managing wounds in patients with CVD, the potential of collagen-based products to stimulate wound healing, and the combination of bacteria-binding dressings with NPWT. Camila Fronzo, JWC chief sub editor, was there to summarise the main points of each session.
