The 6th World congress on Regional Anaesthesia and Pain Medicine is coming back to Europe!

In 2022, the European Society of Regional Anaesthesia and Pain Therapy (ESRA) celebrated its 40th Anniversary since its establishment. Following the great success in Thessaloniki – Greece last June, during our first kick-off, face-to-face meeting since the pandemic, we have again the immense privilege and ultimate pleasure to invite you to Paris, for the 6th World congress on Regional Anaesthesia & Pain Medicine (WcRAPM), hosted by ESRA this time.

Bringing together our continental Sister Societies, the American Society of Regional Anaesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA Pain Medicine), the Latin American Society of Regional Anaesthesia (LASRA), the Asian & Oceanic Society of Regional Anaesthesia and Pain Medicine (AOSRA – PM), and the African Society of Regional Anaesthesia (AFSRA), this event will be a Joint Meeting, held simultaneously with the 40th ESRA Annual congress. Another wonderful gathering has been planned and is scheduled to take place on 6th to 9th September, 2023, at Palais des congrès de Paris – ViPARiS, an iconic building and vast venue, just a few steps away from the most beautiful avenue in the world.
