Parenteral Nutrition in the NICU and PICU; 23-25 nov, Paris

Master Class in Clinical Parenteral Nutrition

Knowledge in parenteral nutrition (PN) has increased very rapidly in the past decades. Therefore, it is vital for the physicians to stay up-to-date with the latest research and treatment paradigms. The Committee on Nutrition (CoN) of ESPGHAN has decided to organize a two day Master Class in Clinical Parenteral Nutrition in order to share state-of-the-art nutritional knowledge and expertise specifically on parenteral nutrition for pediatric and neonatal intensive care patients.

The lectures will not only aim at describing the various nutritional requirements of infants admitted either in the PICU or NICU, but also discuss how to apply them in practice. The upcoming ESPGHAN/ ESPEN/ ESPR guidelines will serve as the basis for the lectures of the faculty. Clinical cases will also be presented by both faculty and participants. Each participants will be asked to submit a clinical case prior to the course, some will be selected for presentation and discussion.

Deadline for applications will be October 1^st, 2016. Notification of acceptance will be done within 2 weeks after that. There are limited places (maximum 45 participants). Candidates will be selected upon application with a CV and a case presentation (abstract of 300 words maximum) which should be uploaded together with the registration form. Please see the instructions on ESPGHAN website. Program and other details may be viewed here.

Welcome!
