Join us for an insightful webinar focusing on enhancing patient survival in emergency laparotomy through a multidisciplinary approach.
Since 2012, the National Emergency Laparotomy Audit (NELA) has been guiding clinicians in optimising care for critically ill patients undergoing emergency laparotomy. By analysing data from hospitals across the UK, NELA identifies key trends and best practices to improve patient outcomes.
In this webinar, leading clinicians will share the latest data, emerging treatment strategies, and insights into NELA’s impact on perioperative care. By attending participants will have the opportunity to stay updated on cutting-edge approaches that can make a real difference in patient survival.
By attending the webinar, you will build your knowledge on:
- Preoperative management of emergency laparotomy patients (ED, investigations, preparation, decision when to operate)
- Peroperative (surgical modalities)
- Postoperative care (pain relief, critical care, nutrition etc)
