6th International Fluid Academy Days November 23-25th, 2017, Hilton Congress Centre Antwerp, Belgium

Geschiedenis
We are very excited to present you the 6th International Fluid Academy Days! A neglected topic for way too long, the interest in fluid therapy seems to be quickly rising as the medical community is making a shift from looking at fluids as a mere method of stabilization towards the appreciation of its relevant side effects.

Many questions remain to be answered indeed. What is the real impact of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis induced by normal saline? What is the place of the colloids? What is the best colloid? Do the classic rules of thumb regarding their dosage limit and indication spectrum hold in modern times? Do we still need human albumin? What is the place of the hypertonics? How is the crystalloid vs colloid debate evolving? What will the future bring us? Can capillary leakage be treated with colloids instead of worsening it? What are the effects on the microcirculation?

And there's more! Since fluid overload is no longer seen as a cosmetic problem but as hazardous to many of our patients, a real challenge lies in the search for strategies to avoid this complication. Modern hemodynamic monitoring can help the clinician in finding thresholds to start and stop filling patients up. What is the place of the CVP and PCWP? Is there an advantage in the use of volume instead of pressure monitoring? Which technologies do we have available? What is the place of lactate? What is around the corner in non-invasive techniques?

The target audience for this day are all specialists caring for the critical patient: intensivists, anesthaesiologists, emergency physicians, internists, burn care specialists,...

We hope you'll join us on this very inspiring meeting. Save the dates! November 23-25th, 2017, Hilton Congress Centre Antwerp, Belgium
