The RSM Venous Forum meeting is the primary UK meeting focusing on the multidisciplinary treatment of patients with venous disease, across different healthcare settings. The management of patients with venous disease continues to be seen as a low priority in an enormously stretched NHS. However, chronic venous disease is increasing in prevalence and is a major cause of patient distress and quality of life impairment. Modern venous treatments are minimally invasive and cost-effective (or even cost-saving) and fully supported by NICE.
The meeting will include hands-on practical training in a range of venous procedures and skills. There will be a focus on supporting the entire multidisciplinary team and offer guidance on optimizing clinical pathways to offer patient-centred, evidence-based care.
This meeting will be available as an on-demand recording. To register to watch the on-demand recording, please click here.
Benefits of attending:
The aim of this meeting is to provide attendees with an update of current, relevant topics in venous disease. Empowering teams to develop venous services, promote practical training and offer guidance on optimizing models of care.
The Venous Forum: Annual Meeting Prize will also be presented and awarded at the meeting. See below for further details and to make a submission.
