Macy Catheter Moment

Dr. Iversen shares an experience she had using the Macy Catheter to ease an ALS patient’s passing after the upper respiratory system deteriorated,—and the patient could not be turned over for constant suppositories.

“Once I get one nurse to use it, they are just sold. The rapidity with which the absorption happens and how well it can bring the symptoms down really makes everyone realize it does make a major change in what we do.”
