remember when...

Remember when....? I remember treating pressure ulcers with Maalox and (something) and using heat lamps. I would like to see more examples.

    Sorbisan,,,,that's that white, thin porous stuff made with a seaweed base?

    When I was in Home Health, the co. rep came to demo Sorbisan for us so we could request orders from the doc. The thing we remembered most from the presentation was when he was talking about it's natural absorbant qualities and that it could also break down and dissolve....and he opened up a fresh package, tore a piece off ...and plopped it in his MOUTH! We all went "EEUUUWWWWW!!!" :eek::barf01:Being nurses we were thinking of it on wet wounds and were not prepared to think of it as edible!!!
