    Amd

    Hey everyone. I have overheard that my hospital is getting this new type of dressing, AMD, through Kendall. I have been to the website, and have found these articles on it, but I was wondering if other people have had experience with it? Any articles about this type of dressing? I have been to the website ( http://kendallamd.com/index.php ) to try and gain some information, but wanted to know about other articles and experiences people may have had! Thanks.

    Hmmm, haven't used it myself yet. Does sound promising. Here's a clinical trial getting started with it.

    Makes me think about all the central lines I see getting infected, wonder if it could be used with them as well.
