5th International Fluid Academy Days 2015

IFAD 2015
Introducing the International Fluid Academy
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.

A New Edition, an Updated Concept

After FOUR successful International Fluid Academy days from 2011 to 2014, this year's 5th anniversary edition sees the introduction of an updated meeting concept:


  • Two full days of invited lectures, tutorials, and short courses
  • plenary and parallel sessions
  • Pro/Con debates
  • An two-level ultrasound course with hours of hands-on training
  • Oral presentations of selected abstracts
  • Poster sessions
  • Satellite symposia
  • Nursing session with internationally renowned speakers

We are very excited to offer this expanded range of sessions, packed with state-of-the art science and presented by world renowned experts. Together with an attractive social program, including gala dinner and opening reception, this year's edition promises to deliver the ultimate balance in science and networking opportunities!


Introducing the International Fluid Academy

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.


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,...
