Innovation in Outpatient Surgery: Learning Through Examples!
Outpatient surgery is undergoing a transformation in many OECD countries. Advances in technology, from less invasive techniques to new anesthetic methods, are leading to an increase in outpatient procedures that enhance patient safety. To maximize the potential of these innovations, they must be championed by agile and adaptable organizations.
In Switzerland and beyond, inspiring projects are reshaping healthcare delivery. This inaugural conference, organized under the auspices of ASACA, will offer insights into these innovations and facilitate discussions about practices that are redefining outpatient surgery in French-speaking Switzerland.
Hosted as part of the surgical technologies accelerator supported by SFITS and the Inartis Foundation, this conference will feature a series of engaging presentations where experts will share their experiences and best practices to transform outpatient surgery. An event that shouldn't be missed!
