Dear colleagues,
on behalf of the Spanish Association for burns and electric injury (AEQUE) we would like to invite you to our first congress which will take place in Madrid. La Paz University Hospital, as a reference center for burns, that is very active in our association, gave us its kind support to organize this meeting. We count on other scientific societies as Latin-American Federation for Burns (FELAQ) with the presence of many of their members.
In recent years, an anual course about burns has been running in La Paz Hospital with the collaboration of our association, and the forth edition will take place as our first annual meeting. For this edition, some well-known national and international panelists, will participate during the whole congress, to share their experiences in each discipline related to the burned patients clinical assistance.
During the meeting there will be an update on burns treatment, but also an opportunity to discuss and improve our background about the different specialties involved in their daily clinical assistance. Plastic surgeons, intensivists, anesthesiologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychiatrists and psychologists, nurses and social workers… who work in our burns units, will be enrolled in our meeting, but also prehospital clinicians who take care of our patients from the accident to the hospitals to be treated during long periods of time, will share their knowledge and experience to improve all together, and do the best for our patients in the future.
We hope that our congress exceeds your expectations, helping to improve your skills and knowledge about burns, whilst allowing you to enjoy our nice city during your stay.
Welcome to Madrid in December
