Abstract and case submission

Why submit an abstract or case?

The aim of the Respiratory Failure and Mechanical Ventilation Conference is to support the exchange of knowledge amongst the international scientific community. Writing an abstract for this conference is an important way for you to communicate your scientific research or clinical practice with your peers. Submitting a clinical case is also very valuable as an educational resource, which strongly supports our offering of casebased sessions.

The call for abstracts is open until 9 October, 2023, 23:59 CEST

Get involved in the programme!

If you submit a clinical case, your work could be selected to be presented in a casebased session at the Respiratory Failure and Mechanical Ventilation (RFMV) Conference. Clinical cases are a detailed reports of the symptoms, signs, diagnosis, treatment, and followup of an individual patient. Clinical cases may contain a demographic profile of the patient, but usually describe an unusual or novel occurrence.

Online submission

You may submit up to three cases covering the following topics:

  • Adult acute respiratory failure
  • Chronic respiratory failure
  • Monitoring of mechanical ventilation in children
  • Monitoring the ventilated patient
  • Noninvasive ventilation practical aspects
  • Noninvasive ventilation and noninvasive CPAP in the PICU
  • Paediatric respiratory failure
  • Problemsolving
  • Case studies of NIV problems
  • Weaning from the mechanical ventilation

When preparing your case for submission, please structure it using the following sections:

1. Case history
2. Investigations
