Vygon Neonatology Days 2026
Relever les défis néonatals : comment les « bundles » contribuent-ils à des pratiques plus sûres et plus intelligentes ?
Bienvenue aux Vyneodays, une nouvelle fois cette année !
Si c’est votre première année et que vous ne nous connaissez pas encore, voici plus d’informations sur ces événements :
#VYNEODAYS26 est un événement de deux jours conçu pour créer un espace où les professionnels de santé peuvent partager leurs connaissances et débattre des dernières innovations en matière de techniques et de procédures destinées aux prématurés et aux enfants.
Pour cette troisième édition, et pour la première fois en France, ce congrès néonatal a pour objectif de fournir aux participants une vision globale actualisée des soins néonatals, de promouvoir les meilleures pratiques, de favoriser l’échange d’expériences, d’améliorer la sécurité des patients et de proposer des outils de formation continue.
#VYNEODAYS26 proposera des présentations et des ateliers en présentiel animés par des experts venus de toute l’Europe, et toutes les sessions seront également retransmises en ligne. Les contenus aborderont des thèmes tels que les défis posés par l’hypothermie dans les premières secondes de vie, l’échographie dans l’accès vasculaire et respiratoire, ainsi que la nutrition entérale.
Pourquoi en novembre ? Nous organisons ces deux journées dans le cadre de la Journée mondiale du prématuré, célébrée chaque année le 15 novembre. Nous espérons vous voir les 19 et 20 novembre à Paris et en streaming.
