What is a seminar
The Association is the UK’s leading provider of postgraduate education for all pathways into Anaesthesia. The Association’s seminar programme features leading experts in anaesthesia, critical care and pain medicine presenting the latest information and thinking on a variety of key anaesthesia topics. Our seminars are designed to focus on a specific field of interest within anaesthesia and help to build on specialist interests. They offer an intimate learning environment, with a maximum of 45 delegates attending each. Keeping the numbers low encourages delegate and faculty interaction.
About this seminar
The Association of Anaesthetists (Great Britain and Ireland) (AoA) and the Association of Paediatric Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland (APAGBI) are pleased to announce a forthcoming, face to face seminar covering: Little people, big responsibilities: A paediatric anaesthesia update for the non-specialist anaesthetist.
This seminar aims to keep the anaesthetist up-to-date with current paediatric management guidelines and discuss strategies for common paediatric emergencies and surgical techniques. It will also offer the delegates the opportunity to put their paediatric anaesthesia questions to the experts.
It is primarily aimed at the consultant anaesthetist who works in a district general hospital and who has a regular commitment to paediatric anaesthesia, but would be useful to all anaesthetists who would like to update their knowledge of paediatric anaesthesia.
