Welcome Message
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Welcome to the Annual Scientific Meeting in Anaesthesiology 2026 – Safety.
In anaesthesia, safety is the unshakable foundation. This year’s meeting returns to our cornerstone to redefine safety for a new era. We will explore its full spectrum: advancing patient safety through precision and innovation; designing resilient systems for quality & safety; and championing our own safety—ensuring the psychological and physical well-being of every professional.
This year, we are proud to collaborate with the World Society of Intravenous Anaesthesia (WSIVA) to design a joint scientific programme. Through this partnership, we have curated a series of integrated sessions aiming to foster academic exchange, innovation, and inspiration between Hong Kong and leading experts from around the world.
Join us to engage with cutting-edge topics from human factors to technology-enhanced vigilance and team well-being. Through dynamic symposiums and hands-on workshops, we will strengthen the timeless skills and forward-thinking leadership that keep our practice safe and secure.
Your presence is vital. Together, we will fortify the foundation that protects our patients, our teams, and our future. We look forward to welcoming you.
