Plenary sessions

These are 2-hour sessions held in the main conference room (“Quebec” room of the Nouveau Siècle Complex).
Each session focuses on CDH and its impact on a specific organ. In this provisional program, the main theme of the session is described in a few words.
For each session, keynote speakers will discuss the main advances made in the field, taking into account advances in basic science and the results of clinical research.
A selection of short presentations will deal with complementary aspects of the subject, and
a 20-minute debate will draw conclusions and highlight prospects.

Workshops

Six workshops will address concrete issues encountered at critical moments in the medical and clinical management of CDH patients.

These 2-hour workshops sessions will cover the following topics:

  • Delivery room management and strategies
  • ECMO treatment
  • Cardiopulmonary interactions
  • Postnatal surgery
  • Prenatal management in CDH
  • Holistic care for CDH patients and their families
