Call for Abstracts

Abstract submission is now closed

On behalf of the Organising Committee of the ANZICS NZ Regional Meeting, I would like to invite submissions for abstract presentation at the Annual Scientific Meeting which will be held at the Napier Conference Centre, Napier, 4-6th March 2020.

Our programme will include scientific presentation and debate of the highest level and will attract a wide variety of critical care practitioners from across New Zealand. It represents an excellent forum for presentation of your research and as organisers we strongly support this opportunity for you to share your knowledge and ideas with a wider audience. As usual there will be prizes on offer for the best presentations within several categories.

We look forward to receiving your submissions and joining us as part of this exciting conference in 2020.
