(the \"Company\" or \"Covalon\") (TSXV: COV) (OTCQX: CVALF), an advanced medical technologies company, today announced the second expert-led webinar in its CLABSI Conscious campaign, titled \"Protecting CVADs from Gross Contamination\", to be held on\n \n Wednesday, March 29\n \n at\n \n 1pm EDT\n \n . Central line-associated blood stream infections (\"CLABSI\") often result from fluids and other substances that contain bacteria and which end up in contact with a central venous access device (\"CVAD\").\n \n \n Amongst frontline shortages, and an increase in traveling nurses, clinicians around the world are doubling down on their efforts to reduce CLABSIs to protect vulnerable patients from a devastating setback (at best), and at worst, a life-threatening infection that results in death. Yet, CLABSIs are on the rise in pediatric units across the US. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) has reported\n \n \n a 47% increase in CLABSIs\n \n \n since the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic.\n \n \n In this webinar,\n \n Matthew Ostroff\n \n , MSN, AGACNP, VABC, CPUI, a top pediatric vascular access specialist, will address the current climate in healthcare, and offer new solutions with seasoned expert guidance to target zero CLABSIs. Webinar attendees will hear expert opinions related to CLABSI conscious practices, and explore new technology designed to help prevent CLABSIs by maintaining safety and consistency in the NICU, PICU, and beyond.\n \n \n \n Webinar Details\n \n \n \n \n Title:\n \n Protecting CVADs from Gross Contamination\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Presentation by:\n \n \n \n Matthew Ostroff\n \n , M...
