The program will be published soon.
Day 1: November 23, 2017 (Workshops)
Dear IFA friends.
As scientific programme chairs, we invite you to attend the IFAD pre-symposium workshops that offer a fantastic opportunity to meet and greet key-opinion leaders and experts in their field in a small interactive group. You will have a true VIP experience in the front seat. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first serve basis. We will have a full series around stewardship that is not to be missed: Antibiotic Stewardship, Sepsis Stewardship, Fluid Stewardship, and Nutrition Stewardship. The hemodynamic workshops 1 and 2 (Beginners) can be booked consecutively as they will elaborate on a sepsis and trauma case during the initial Resuscitation/Salvage (hemodynamic workshop 1) and subsequent Optimisation phase (hemodynamic workshop 2). The hemodynamic workshops 3 and 4 are identical and thus cannot be booked consecutively. They will deal with tips, tricks, and pitfalls of hemodynamic monitoring and elaborate on the assessment of fluid responsiveness and goal-directed therapy (Advanced). Enjoy the IFAD!

Day 2: November 24, 2017
The first IFAD day will start on Nov 24th with a plenary session with lectures on Sepsis 3.0, critical care year in review and avoiding massive transfusion. Afterwards the day moves along in two parallel sessions with topics for intensivsits, anaesthetists or a broader audience. After lunch 6 master class satellite symposia will be organsied. Not to be missed is the hot topics session with presentation of IFA endorsed research (supported by unrestricted educational grants covering the fee for Open Access publication) within the FOAM philosophy. Before the first day plenary "Wrap It Up" closing session given by the fantastic SoMe (social media) team there will be a focus on the hypotensive shocked patient and the patient with fluid overload.
Enjoy the IFAD!
