EWMA 2017, held in Amsterdam,  provided a unique and interesting look at the European Advanced Wound Care market - showcasing products approved for the European market but not yet launched in the US. Europe has always been a breeding ground for innovative medical devices, and has long served as a gateway for companies looking to bring new devices to the US.
