Wessex Anaesthetists in Training (WAIT) Annual Scientific Meeting 2017
On Wednesday 11th October 2017 the WAIT Committee held a very successful meeting at the Holiday Inn Winchester attended by over 90 trainees and consultants from the region. They were drawn by the superb programme which included Dr Liam Brennan, President of the RCoA, Fiona Dalton, CEO of UHSFT and Mr Reza Nouraei, co-author of THRIVE.
The meeting was supported by excellent poster and oral presentations giving the three judges of Dr Ian Taylor, Dr Julie Onslow and Dr Mark Edwards a very difficult task of picking winners. However, the 2nd place poster winner was Aidan Joyce with a poster looking at equipment for the management of the unexpected difficult airway. 1st place went to Ian Sheldrake with a poster describing an audit of patient handover in recovery.
The oral presentations were of an exceptional quality with only 4 marks separating all four speakers. 2nd place was awarded to Jamie Plumb who spoke about Preoperative Optimisation of Anaemia before Surgery with 1st place being awarded to Laura Tompsett who spoke very well about major trauma in the over 65s. Congratulations to all the winners.
The School also gave out awards for best CT and ST. The winners here were Andrew Cumpstey for best CT and Louise Bates for best ST. Well done!
The Committee were pleased that many people were able to join us after the meeting for the drinks reception.
We would like to thank the Holiday Inn for their support, Tim Hanham for his advice, IT and website support and of course our sponsors Kapitex, Wesleyan, Merck, Grunenthal and Pajunk.
