The EAP Congress and MasterCourse over the past few years, despite an ever-increasing number of conferences in Paediatrics, has attained a very special reputation.

Over one-and-a-half days, the conference presents a fantastic workshop, named Mastercourse in Paediatrics. The MasterCourse this time will be focused on "The Acutely ill Child".

The scientific committee of the congress has set up an interesting programme for both senior and junior doctors, which covers in depth important clinical subjects.

As in previous years, EAP will also apply for CME credits.

EAP 2023 will take place in Padova during one of the most beautiful periods of the year. There is no better time to combine knowledge with pleasure!

Care coordination within hospitals and health systems has never been more important as it helps to align priorities of care teams and minimize waste within the system. Delayed discharges are not just an inconvenience; they lead to poorer experiences for patients and prevent hospitals from providing responsive care for patients requiring acute care, and those requiring admission for planned procedures. Poorly managed hospital-wide patient flow and capacity management has critical implications for both patients and providers.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted all aspects of hospital care, and has altered nearly all fundamental practices, including discharge protocols. Discharge planning is an integral part of a hospital’s clinical care. On a daily basis, healthcare providers think carefully about how to help patients safely transition back into life outside of the hospital. Patients need up-to-date information about how to keep themselves and those around them safe, and resources and support to help them recover from illness. In response to COVID-19, within an exceptionally short time frame, hospitals have had to rapidly adapt their discharge planning protocols and have had to continue to adapt as new information comes out. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of discharge planning for patient care and has added a new element of public health in that healthcare providers have to take all possible precautions to ensure that patients are not spreading the virus after they leave the hospital.

The conference brings together leaders from hospitals, health systems, home care, health plans and managed care organizations to discuss best practices for improving care coordination, reducing readmissions, preventing avoidable healthcare utilization, and collaborating across the continuum. Network with leading practitioners on discharge planning and learn from the success of others on how to prevent hospital readmissions through comprehensive discharge planning; move patients quickly, efficiently and safely through the hospital system; improve capacity planning and service design; enhance patient care and satisfaction; and much more.

Patients arrive at hospitals every day through different paths. Some through the emergency department, some through physician referrals, and some through scheduled procedures. What makes all of these situations similar is the fact that critically ill patients need access to care at the right place and the right time. At the same time, there are challenges when it comes to creating a culture of access. Health systems face growing capacity challenges and patient experience suffers when access is limited, or delays occur between transitions in care. Barriers include organizational silos, lack of continuity across care settings, and a lack of real-time operational visibility. For example, if someone needs acute, immediate care they would typically enter a health system through the ED or via a referral/transfer from another physician or facility, otherwise known as a direct admit. However, sometimes a direct admit isn’t that direct. Sometimes it ends up being fragmented, inefficient and time-consuming. And in some cases, it may take so long that the referring physician sends a patient to a competing health system. The result of these delays is lost revenue, a negative impact to a health system’s reputation, and a weakening of community physician ties. Another unfortunate scenario that can unfold when a health system can’t accommodate a direct admit is that patients may end up getting sent to the emergency room instead. That results in overcrowding and increases in left-without-being-seen. At this conference you will learn about how command centers utilize advanced predictive analytic technology and artificial intelligence to monitor and target real-time data on incoming patients, patient discharges, bed availability, and other hospital logistics. While hospital command centers are progressively growing in use among medical centers across the globe, learn how different hospitals utilize their own facilities to address their unique needs and issues.

The 15th International Congress on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and the 43rd Korean College of Rheumatology Annual Scientific Meeting and 17th International Symposium (LUPUS And KCR 2023), will be held in Seoul, Korea from May 17th to 20th, 2023, co-hosted by Korean Society of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Research (KSSR) and the Korean College of Rheumatology (KCR).

It is the first time that Korea has been given the honor of hosting this prestigious event and the fifth time the event has been hosted in the Asia-Pacific region after Singapore, Israel, China, and Australia.

"Stairway to the End of the War" is the theme of LUPUS And KCR 2023. It has multiple meanings, one of which is aiming to end the war on rheumatic diseases including SLE. We are hoping that it will also mean the end of war on COVID19 through which the participants could attend the meeting in person. It will gather a huge audience of more than 2,000 participants of rheumatologists from all over the world and world-renowned experts in rheumatic diseases on basic and clinical science.

This joint meeting of LUPUS And KCR 2023 will expand the scope of programs and topics encompassing and maximizing impacts and synergies. It will be the perfect meeting where you can present your products, discuss with world renowned basic and clinical researchers specialized in rheumatic diseases so that you can connect and collaborate with experts.

Patients have been very clear: They want care that is convenient and accessible, personalized and streamlined and often, delivered outside of the hospital. By 2025, expenditures on in-home care services for Medicare fee-for-service and Medicare Advantage beneficiaries could reach $265 billion, creating new challenges and opportunities for the technology that powers the distributed care model. But to deploy this model effectively, healthcare organizations need a comprehensive view of the patient journey that enables accurate patient identification and connection to the right care and treatments at the right place and time.
