On September 26th and 27th, the Hotel Bahía in Santander will once again become a meeting point for professionals in Neurophysiology and Intensive Care Medicine with the celebration of the 2nd Course on Electroencephalographic Monitoring in Intensive Care. Following the success of its first edition in 2023, this new gathering incorporates the contributions and suggestions received then, further establishing itself as a high-level scientific forum in the field of neurological monitoring.
A program tailored to current clinical challenges
The course is directed by José Luis Fernández Torre, Head of the Clinical Neurophysiology Department at Marqués de Valdecilla University Hospital (HUMV) and coordinator of the Neurophysiology in Epilepsy and Neurocritical Care group at the Marqués de Valdecilla Research Institute (IDIVAL), and Miguel Ángel Hernández Hernández, specialist physician in the Polytrauma and Neurocritical Care Unit at HUMV and also a researcher within the same IDIVAL group. The event will bring together national and international experts to address the current challenges in video-electroencephalographic (vEEG) monitoring in neurocritical patients.
Over the course of two days, participants will delve into the role of EEG as a fundamental tool for the diagnosis, monitoring, and prognosis of patients with acute brain injury, non-convulsive status epilepticus, or coma, as well as its integration with other multimodal neuromonitoring techniques in the ICU.
The program includes training in quantitative EEG, interpretation of ictal-interictal continuum patterns, management of depth of anesthesia monitors, and analysis of neuroimaging correlates in the context of severe brain pathology.
The course will also feature a panel of renowned speakers from hospitals such as Marqués de Valdecilla, Puerta de Hierro, Bellvitge, and La Princesa, as well as international institutions like the University of North Carolina School of Medicine.
A meeting to share knowledge and experience
The aim is to provide an advanced training environment and a space for exchanging experiences between intensivists and clinical neurophysiologists, with a practical approach based on real cases and multidisciplinary discussion.
The course will take place at the Hotel Bahía de Santander, specifically in the Santillana Room. The course’s Technical Secretariat will also be located within the hotel facilities to assist all attendees and guest speakers.
