39th Annual ESRA Congress (ESRA 2020) | Thessaloniki, Greece

Call for Papers

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of ESRA and the Organising Committee, we invite you to join us in Thessaloniki for the 39th Annual ESRA Congress - State of the Art Safety Standards in Regional Anaesthesia.

The Scientific Committee is developing a programme in which the interaction between speakers and the audience is of utmost importance. The programme will cover all the fields of interest in the application of regional anaesthesia/analgesia alone or in multimodal approaches. Acute and chronic pain management topics of special interest for anaesthesiologists will also be included.

The scientific standard at the annual ESRA congress is now recognised as one of the best in the world and as a result, carries a high rating with the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education. 

Key Dates:

- Abstract submission deadline: 5 May 2020

- Early registration deadline: 15 July 2020

During the Thessaloniki Congress, you will have the possibility to register for the first part (written exam) of the Certified EDRA (European Diploma in Regional Anaesthesia and Acute Pain Management) and EDPM (European Diploma of Pain Medicine). For those participants who have already successfully completed the first part of these diplomas, there will be the opportunity to take the second part (practical).

ESRA 2020 will also give us the time and opportunities for networking. While enjoying our outstanding scientific programme, ESRA's Annual Congress is the place to network with your peers, meet old friends and make new ones. This year's programme features several networking opportunities and occasions.

We very much expect you to enjoy this exciting anaesthesia congress set in Thessaloniki!
