Current Regional Anesthesia Updates
Review developments that are changing how regional anesthesia is selected, planned, and used in clinical practice.
A one-day regional anesthesia meeting focused on current clinical updates, procedural technique, ultrasound-guided practice, and live demonstrations.
See anatomy, ultrasound, and regional anesthesia technique connected through QUADRA™, with expert faculty discussing how current approaches translate into everyday clinical practice.
Milan, Italy
The program connects current anesthesia evidence with procedural decisions, ultrasound interpretation, perioperative management, and live clinical demonstration.
Review developments that are changing how regional anesthesia is selected, planned, and used in clinical practice.
QUADRA™ connects anatomical relationships, real-time ultrasound, and procedural technique during the same teaching sequence.
Sessions are designed to connect current knowledge with decisions clinicians can apply in everyday regional anesthesia practice.
The focus goes beyond how a technique is performed to address why a particular approach may be selected and how it fits the clinical situation.
Case-based sessions address practical implementation, common mistakes, safety, complications, efficiency, and real-world workflow.
Review simplified innervation maps for the knee, hip, and shoulder and connect them to block selection, surgical analgesia, and denervation pathways.
Regional anesthesia continues to change as ultrasound techniques, block selection, perioperative pathways, and procedural strategies develop.
The Milan meeting is designed to bring those developments together in one focused day.
Registration includes access to the complete one-day educational program.
Confirmed and expected program components include:
QUADRA™ allows attendees to see how anatomy, ultrasound imaging, probe movement, and procedural planning relate during the same demonstration.

An application has been made to the UEMS EACCME® for CME accreditation of this event.
What is a CME activity? A Continuing Medical Education(CME) activity serves to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public, or the profession.
Why do physicians need continuing medical education (CME) credit? Physicians use CME credit to demonstrate that they have participated in educational activities and obtained CME credit to document meeting the requirements of state medical boards, medical specialty societies, specialty boards, hospital medical staffs, the Joint Commission, insurance groups, and others.
Who accredits the Course? Accreditation by the EACCME means that the CME/CPD activity provided is of high scientific value, is free of commercial bias and promotes active adult learning. This is of paramount importance to doctors who need to report to their National Accreditation Authority on their CME/CPD activity over a certain period of time, and this even more now that many national systems are (becoming) mandatory and not voluntary. By attending an EACCME accredited event, they will be able to obtain European CME credits (ECMEC) which are recognised not only in a majority of European countries (with which the EACCME has signed agreements), but also in the USA and Canada. By handing in their EACCME certificate to their National Accreditation Authority, their credits will automatically be recognised and converted into national credits.
What documentation does a physician receive for participating in a certified CME activity provided by an accredited CME provider? A CME certificate will be issued and can be used to prove attendance.

Regional Anesthesia Summit 2027
“What I liked most was the comparison between different block options. It made the decision-making feel much more practical.”
“Seeing the anatomy, ultrasound, and technique together helped me understand why certain approaches work better in specific cases.”
“The QUADRA™ demonstrations made it much easier to connect the ultrasound image with the underlying anatomy and procedural plan.”
“The summit connected a lot of things that are usually taught separately—anatomy, ultrasound, block selection, joint innervation, and troubleshooting. By the end, I felt I understood the reasoning behind the techniques much better.”
“The most valuable part for me was comparing different approaches to the same clinical problem. It made me rethink some of my routine block choices.”
“QUADRA made the anatomy sessions much easier to follow. Being able to connect the anatomical structures with the ultrasound view and procedure was extremely useful.”
“The summit went beyond technique. There was a lot of discussion around workflow, troubleshooting, and what to do when your first plan isn’t working.”
“I’ve attended many regional anesthesia meetings, and what I liked here was the emphasis on understanding rather than simply collecting more blocks. It gave me a better framework for decision-making.”
This conference is suitable for anesthesiology professionals including consultants, trainees, CRNAs, anesthesia nurses, and perioperative team members, as well as educators and researchers focused on improving anesthesia knowledge and patient outcomes.
The early bird discount is €695. Registration must be made prior to March 17th, 2027.
