Advancing Trauma Care Through Functional Haemostasis Testing

Trauma-induced coagulopathy is one of the leading causes of preventable mortality in severely injured patients. This one-day academic symposium brings together renowned experts to discuss the latest advances in trauma haemostasis, viscoelastic testing (TEG/ROTEM), platelet function assays, and evidence-based patient management.

Participants will gain practical knowledge through scientific lectures, live demonstrations, interactive case discussions, expert panel sessions, and the official release of the book Acute Trauma-Induced Coagulopathy: Mechanisms, Diagnostics, and Management Strategies.

Scientific Sessions

Latest evidence-based lectures from nationally recognized trauma experts.

Live Demonstration

Hands-on demonstration of TEG and Platelet Function Assays.

Interactive Learning

Case discussions with multidisciplinary faculty and clinical experts.

Networking

Meet clinicians, researchers, residents and industry professionals.
