March 26, 201016 yr We are nourishing an idea of a 99nicu conference. About evidence-based neonatology ("today and tomorrow"). In Stockholm The idea is to have a two-day program of shorter lectures, i.e. about 15-20 lectures would be sufficient. What topics and speakers would YOU like to see in the programme?
March 26, 201016 yr Speakers - Will think about that. Topics - Long list.... Part 1: Steroids in chronic lung disease Bicarbonate therapy Nitric oxide in preterms IVIG in sepsis Exchange transfusion in sepsis Evidence based protocols for ........( to be filled in later) End of part 1 Part 2 arriving shortly
March 27, 201016 yr Idea: excellet Timing: January-March or June-July would be better Topics: Hypothermia therapy for HIE Erythropoietin and neuroprotection Shoud we close the PDA? Inotropic therapy for preterm Non-invasive ventilation Prevetion of BPD INO and preterm oxygen and resuscitation Prevetion of CRBSI INO for preterm neurodevelopmental outcome of ELBWI CS related morbidities NIDCAP Neonatal pain assessment and management Speakers: Roger Soll David Edwards Denis Azzopardi Alan Jobe Durand Ola saugstadt Christian Speer Gorm Greisen Barbara Schmidt Martin Kezler Helmot Hummler Joseph Neu Zeigeler Nick Evans Martin Kluckow Hugo Lagerhans Gorm Greisen
March 28, 201016 yr Author Timing: January-March or June-July would be better I think early June would be better than Jan-March - weather-wise Sweden is much more welcoming that time of the year. How about 3-4 June 2011? Any know conflicts?
March 29, 201016 yr Time: Definitely summer if you want people to come to Stockholm.. Topics: - PDA therapeutic options - Management of apnea - Neonatal seizures - HIE - is there a standard of treatment? - resuscitation of the extremely preterm newborn - fluid therapy in the first week of life - nutritional additives (vitamin A, E etc.) - pain management - the "right" ventilator settings - nitric oxide - transfusion and erythropoietin - perfusing the newborn brain - How to conduct a "good" trial in neonatology speakers: Gorm Greisen Barbara Schmidt Martin Kluckow Marianne Thoresen Henry Halliday Istvan Seri David Field Haresh Kirpalani Linda de Vries
March 29, 201016 yr Author What do you think about a prel time scheme like this? In all, 18 lectures, each lasting 25 (or 20) min + 10 (or 15) min discussionschedule..doc
March 30, 201016 yr I like the time frame. Something that I always found compelling was cross-talk of two speakers arguing on one subject, say PDA therapy and each speaker arguing for or against therapy (prophylactic, surgery options etc.) and citing the evidence for each situation. This done well is very educative - it needs the right speakers though..
March 31, 201016 yr I think a 3 day schedule will be more comfortable. Adding time for discussions adding some topics on basis of EBM in the first day will be valuable addition. 30 minutes lectures is OK. Podcasting of these lectures on ourwebsite will be another intersting option.
April 2, 201016 yr Author I think it would be lots of work to coordinate three days of rather short lectures. And expensive, given travels and hotels more maybe 25 speakers. But, maybe topics related to EBM deserve longer lectures, say 40 min lectures with 20 min discussion? What do you think about a 3-day plan (see attachment). 19 speakers in all.
April 8, 201016 yr Author here comes an updated version of a possible/preliminary schedule. Please feel free to revise and re-upload (add as attachment)!schedule_3ds..doc
April 15, 201016 yr Author Just few additions Thanks for filling the schedule up! I have communincated with JACK/Habib. Maybe it would be good to focus on a few major topics (3-4), have several lectures on that topics, finishing with a panel discussion. We have started a Wave (Google Wave) about the schedule. Hesham, do you have Wave, if not I can send you an invite!
April 15, 201016 yr Author BTW, right now I am spending two days with the Swe Med Journal at http://en.djuronaset.com/ Really nice place, they have a lecture room for 400 people, and can house 280 people in single rooms. A bit outside Stockholm but in the archipelag.
