The Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC), held in Las Vegas last October, featured 40 new clinical sessions, numerous exhibitions and a host of speakers from the front lines of the field of wound care, including four DCS wound experts: James Wilcox, RN, spoke of "The Art and the Evidence of Compression Therapy;" Deborah Stewart, MD, addressed "How to Diagnose and Treat Osteomyelitis;" and Gregory Bohn, MD, and Linda Montoya, RN, presented on "How to Use NPWT."
DCS' West Coast physician symposium, held the first weekend in October, was the second such gathering hosted by DCS this year. In addition to providing instruction, the CME-accredited event included a panel discussion on Medicare and quality of care, tips for effectively managing practices, and an interactive discussion that answered questions posed by attendees. The Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel, CA, provided an inspiring setting for the lively, informative discussions that took place that weekend.
