It’s the middle of the night. Things are not going well. Your patient is sick and the numbers are getting worse.

What do you do? What does the ECG show? What’s on the X-ray? What do the bloods mean? Fluid restrict or rehydrate? Should you give steroids? Transfer to ITU or transfer out?

It isn't always easy.

Acute Medicine 2012 will be an intensive 2-day course focused on aspects of emergency medicine that make a difference.

We look forward to seeing you at Acute Medicine 2012 in London.

The speakers are experts in their fields and are all active in acute and emergency medicine. They are there to give you direct practical advice, to share their tricks of the trade, and to shine a light on what will be new and hot in 2012 and beyond.

Who should attend - Acute Medicine 2012 will be relevant to all individuals involved in acute medicine. It will be designed to give you the confidence to run or be a team member in an Acute Medical Take.
