I have a patient who had a failed mesh placement and a panniculectomy and who has developed at least three separate fistulas with a very large amount of output (3-4 L/24 hrs). Any suggestions? I am using an Eakin wound management pouch hooked up to wall suction.
Wound care bandage manufacturer to give away product samples at wound care symposium
Action Bandage manufacturers a final bandage system that holds subbandages and other medical devices such as IVs and PICC lines in place for an extended period of time without the use of adhesives or tapes. Designed to fit a number of different body parts, the bandage system is reusable, offers easy on and off convenience, and eliminates use of tapes and adhesives ensuring patient comfort.
The newly patent-pending technology, produced from thermoplastic materials, is used to interface with dressings and other subbandages. The bandage system employs an original design that protects and secures wound dressings and allows wounds to breathe while they heal. The company will be giving away $80,000 worth of product to attendees of the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC) April 26-29, 2009 in Dallas, Texas. Interested attendees are encouraged to visit Booth #1217.
