2nd Prehabilitation World Conference

Make your patients Fit for Surgery !!

June 27-29, 2018 the 2nd Prehabilitation World Conference will be held in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.

Worldwide experts in prehabilitation, training, nutrition, mental support, perioperative care and outcomes will share their knowledge to allow you to start prehabilitation or improve your current program.

The World Prehabilitation Conference is the world's largest interdisciplinary congress for healthcare professionals (including paramedics) who are interested in getting patients as fit as possible before surgery. During the congress, many prominent speakers from the Netherlands and abroad will not only highlight the latest developments but also present suggestions and advice for day-to-day clinical practice. They will talk about prehabilitation, rehabilitation and ERAS (enhanced recovery after surgery).

It is with great pleasure that we announce this major prehabilitation conference for 2018.

We expect to welcome approximately 300-400 healthcare professionals, including surgeons, anesthesiologists, researchers, oncologists, nurses, dietitians, geriatricians, physiotherapists gastroenterologists, sports physicians, health insurers, and healthcare innovators.
