Dear colleagues,
we are happy to invite you to our 6th International Euregio Intensive Care Symposium entitled „New Evidence in Sepsis“. The symposium will take place in the “SuperC” of the RWTH Aachen University on Saturday, 5th September 2015 in the very heart of the city of Aachen.
Our Euregional Intensive Care Symposium (EIS) is a traditional part of the interdisciplinary intensive care cooperation in the Euregio and gives you the opportunity to discuss recent studies with competent national and international experts in the field.
The exciting new publications and thus new insights in sepsis suggested to present new evidence and to discuss this evidence with you.
Furthermore, we are glad to present you data of studies in German intensive care units as well as international studies.
You will achieve valuable insights in actual data on the incidence of sepsis in Germany. Moreover, you may re-evaluate diagnosis of sepsis and the antiinfective therapy. Other data challenge the significance of dogmas like the early goaldirected therapy (EGDT) or the use of the central venous pressure (CVP) to guide volume resuscitation. A study of the German Sepnet will provide new knowledge on adjunctive therapy with selenium in sepsis. Finally, we will gain an update of hydrocortisone and talk about appropriate anticoagulation in sepsis.
We are happy to welcome you on behalf of the three departments in the Centre of Europe and to provide a clinical science platform for personal and scientific exchange.
