Dear colleagues and friends,
Iti s our great pleasure and honor to announce the 3rd Croatian Congress of Day Surgery that will take place on 27th and 28th of September 2024 at the Amadria Park Grand Hotel 4 Opatijska cvijeta in Opatija. As you may notice, we decided to extend the venue to two days. in contrast to previous „one day congress“ because ambulatory surgery has experienced tremendous growth during recent years.
Ambulatory surgery being interdisciplinary teamwork, this congress will try to empower the bonds between specialties dividing the sections by themes, not by profession. As before, the congress is once again held with the support of our colleagues and friends from IAAS, who have been a continuous and strong stimulus for the advancement of day surgery in Croatia over the past decade.
The focus of this congress will continue to be on the organization of work and the structure of day surgery units, with a special emphasis on the role of anesthesiologists in day surgery.
We will critically reflect on the challenges in day surgery through new experiences. Local and international speakers will be present, and, in case of interest there will be some
workshops.
Hoping to, once again, enhance our knowledge, make new acquaintances, all while enjoying pleasant company,
We greet you warmly,
Asst. prof. Ana Bosak Veršić, MD, PhD
President of the Croatian Society for Day Surgery
Prof. Željko Verzak, DMD, PhD
