28th ISICEM

As in 2007, the ISICEM's upcoming annual scientific gathering in Brussels expects to welcome around 5,000 participants from 90 countries

There is a huge amount of literature being published and even with improved access via the internet, accumulating all the relevant data and applying it correctly to clinical practice is a challenge for even the most fastidious amongst us.

The ISICEM gives us all an opportunity to catch-up with the latest advances so that we can return to our individual units full of newly learned information and techniques for the ultimate benefit of our patients. Join us and recharge your scientific batteries at the 28th ISICEM!’ the organisation’s chairman Jean-Louis Vincent urges.
‘This year,’ he points out, ‘there will be more than 500 standard presentations, supplemented by more than 30 tutorials, 10 pro-con debates, 10 physiological or historical notes, as well as plenary lectures, case discussions, round tables, workshops, and meet the expert sessions.
‘Topics covered during the symposium will be diverse and varied and provide something of interest and of practical use for everyone who attends. There will be sessions on sepsis, ventilator-associated lung injury, acute respiratory failure, cerebrovascular accidents, pain management, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, pancreatitis, ICU management and safety, cardiorespiratory monitoring techniques, mechanical ventilation, neuromonitoring and head trauma, vasopressors, liver and renal failure, nosocomial infections, long-term outcomes, nutrition, clinical trial design, ethics, information technology as applied to intensive care, and massive bleeding to list just a few.’

 

Over 440 accepted abstracts of original work will be displayed as posters.
 In addition, 80 medical devices manufacturers as well as publishing firms will display their relevant products and publications.
