Description :
The 5th LAUNCH (Lung UltrAsoUnd in Neonates and Children) Congress, held in Milan and endorsed by the European Society of Paediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care, delivers a comprehensive educational experience focused on the evolving role of lung ultrasound in neonatal and pediatric critical care.
This program provides in-depth coverage of the integration of lung ultrasound with multimodal monitoring techniques across neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and pediatric intensive care units (PICU). Through continuous conference recordings, participants gain access to high-level scientific content, practical insights, and case-based discussions that reflect real-world clinical challenges.
The curriculum also includes specialized sessions such as hands-on learning components, masterclasses, and expert discussions, offering a well-rounded approach to advancing diagnostic and monitoring capabilities in critically ill infants and children.
