Euroanaesthesia 2015

It is our great pleasure and honour to announce that Euroanaesthesia is returning to Germany in 2015 and will be hosted at the newly constructed CityCube in Berlin.

A decade has already passed since the Presidents of the European Society of Anaesthesiologists, the European Academy of Anaesthesiology and the Confederation of National Societies of Anaesthesiologists had the foresight to join forces and amalgamate in to one single European anaesthesiology organisation. The European Society of Anaesthesiology, the new ESA as we know it today, was born in January 2005 and has developed into a strong, dynamic and extremely successful medical society. The ESA has a worldwide reputation of professionalism and excellence and formally became the European Regional Section of the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) in July 2014. We will be celebrating 10 years of our society’s achievements during our flagship event in Berlin.

We have grown to expect a state-of-the art educational and scientific programme at the annual congress. Once again Euroanaesthesia 2015 will not disappoint us. Under the joint leadership of Prof Stefan De Hert and Prof Charles Marc Samama, the Scientific Committee has elaborated an outstanding programme full of cutting edge innovations in basic and clinical science, innovation in clinical application, in education and in quality and safety improvement. Research from investigators around the world will be presented in special lectures, interactive sessions, as well as the traditional abstract-based programme with presentations in front of electronic poster boards. Pre-congress courses and workshops are as always an integral part of the Euroanaesthesia programme.

A significant new approach to the programme is the reorganisation of the congress into 17 Learning Tracks based on topics, no longer following the structure of the Scientific Committee and its Subcommittees. As of Stockholm, the Scientific Subcommittee Meetings are open to all ESA members. We encourage you to attend and to contribute to the discussions. The schedule will be published in the Final Programme.
