Prolonged Field Care Podcast 175: Maggot Therapy
Maggot therapy, also known as maggot debridement therapy (MDT), is a treatment that uses live maggots to clean and heal wounds. The therapy has a long history, dating back thousands of years, and has been used in various settings, including war zones and modern hospitals. Maggots are effective in wound healing because they eat necrotic tissue, have antimicrobial properties, and promote the growth of new tissue. The therapy is cost-effective and can be used in low-resource settings. It can be applied directly to the wound or placed in a mesh bag. Maggot therapy is often used as an adjunct to antibiotics and other wound treatments.
