COVID-19 Outbreak: Is it Possible to Safely Maintain a Regular Vascular Practice During the COVID-19 Pandemic?

commented By: Keith Harding on Mar 23, 2021

At the beginning of the pandemic we were unsure of how to maintain our wound clinics, continuing the treatment of our patients. As the pandemic progressed we became more aware of how to manage our patients and clinics, even if on a more limited basis. This is an interesting article that shows how vascular services can be maintained during a pandemic.

International Wound Community: Efficacy and safety of recombinant human epidermal growth factor for diabetic foot ulcers: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials

commented By: Keith Harding on Mar 04, 2021
Biologicals play an important role in the management of wounds. In particular many have helped with the management of diabetic foot ulcers. Growth factors have been around for over a decade now and many clinical studies have shown some efficacy. But are they conclusive? This review would suggest they played a role in the healing of such wounds.

commented By: Keith Harding on Feb 04, 2021
I was proud to be part of this event. Having travelled to Canada on many occasions to participate in this meeting I was sad that it was virtual. As I love a good party and the Canadians certainly know how to party - well apart from my colleague Dr Queen!
