Speakers
OVERVIEW
Innovations in Emergency Surgery: Development of Emergency Day Surgery Pathways is organized by Healthcare Conferences UK and would be held on Feb 23, 2017 at De Vere Venues West One, London, England, United Kingdom.
Day surgery is now provided for a wide range of procedures, in patients ranging from the very fit to the rather frail. It has become the standard of care for the majority of elective surgery and should be the default option for all 200 procedures within the BADS Directory of Procedures.
The development of Ambulatory Emergency Surgery pathways for minor and intermediate surgical procedures provides an excellent pathway for these patients with huge benefits for both the patients and trust. Patients receive more timely treatment in a semi-planned manner and significant numbers of beds can be liberated by the avoidance of unnecessary admission of a large cohort of patients. The day will provide an excellent opportunity for discussion of these issues with experts from BADS and participants from across UK and will be of interest to those with medical, nursing and managerial backgrounds.
