Intravenous (IV) fluid therapy plays a fundamental role in the management of hospitalized patients and correct use of IV fluids can be lifesaving. Parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions and additives also give clinicians many opportunities to meet diverse patient needs.

IV fluid administration is one of the most common interventions in acute care, but it can be frequently mismanaged, thus we support ongoing education related to fluid stewardship, join us for a session on fluid stewardship

More than 80% of hospitalized patients receive IV fluids. However, 1 in 5 patients may suffer complications or morbidity due to inappropriate administration of IV fluids.

Despite the request from the WHO many countries do not have a national sepsis plan. Fluid prescribing has been shown to be associated with significant morbidity and mortality and many patients who receive intravenous fluids suffer iatrogenic harm. Now is time to do better!

Overview and objectives: The course will start by refreshing core topics in point of care ultrasound of the heart, lung and abdomen. Then we will quickly move towards hands-on sessions to put this in practice. The CACU programme is innovative to meet the needs of beginners and advanced practitioners. The CACU course offers a fantastic opportunity to meet and greet expert sonographers in a small interactive group. You will have a true VIP experience on the front seat where you will be able to improve your skills during the hands-on sessions and to test your knowledge during the interactive cases with voting.

Learning objective:

• Become a better bedside doctor
• Never be surprised by your patient’s blood gas ever again
• Meet world-renown experts in the field
• Truly master acid-base at the bedside
• Supported by many interactive clinical cases
• Bicarbonate Rules, Base Excess, Stewart, Mixed approaches

Learning objective: Theoretical concepts, basic physiology and pathophysiology, cardiac and respiratory support and monitoring, alarm settings and monitoring, role of cardiac ultrasound during ECMO, newest technologies, circuits and devices, practical hands-on sessions and simulations.

Fluid administration and management are one of the fundamental practices of intensive care. The principles of good fluid practice are built upon the foundations of a firm understanding of the underlying pathophysiological process. Read this blog by our Diamond sponsor.

Cardiac Cycle Efficiency (CCE) is a unique hemodynamic variable exclusive to MostCare Up. CCE provides a global assessment of total cardiovascular performance, measured in terms of energy expenditure.

A growing list of publications indicate that the assessment of lymphocyte subset counts may provide prognostic information for COVID-19 disease severity and convalescence when considered in conjunction with other clinical information.

Advantage Hemodynamic parameters like cardiac output and its determinants can be useful for optimising individual goal-directed therapy. Read this blog by our Golden Sponsor
