sterile talc
Can anyone offer advice about the use of staerile talc in the canister form? Can that be used as an alternative to the vial form which is dispensed in a syringe?
Our Thoracic prople are saying the aerosol form does not have mechanism to administer the aerosol through the chest tube at the bedside.
Has anyone had experience with this form?
Thanks
Susan
