Fundamentals of Paediatric Neurosurgery Course

Facilitated by Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust & Sheffield Children's Hospital NHS Trust & in collaboration with B. Braun Medical Ltd
About this Event

This event is for Healthcare Professionals only (HCPs).
Paediatric neurosurgical rotation or on-call can be daunting for junior neurosurgical trainees due to lack of exposure to paediatric patients and conditions affecting children. However, it is crucial for junior trainees to be equipped with the fundamentals of managing these patients to safeguard and improve patient care. This will also enable trainees to optimise and enhance their learning during their paediatric neurosurgical rotation or on-call.

COURSE DINNER
There will be a course dinner taking place on Monday 15th June, the cost of this is included in your fee therefore please ensure that you confirm your attendance during the registration process.
Further information on this will be provided in due course.
