The international conference under the theme “Evidence-Based Medicine with Multidimensional Approaches” runs on August 1 and August 2, bringing together leading scientists, physicians and healthcare professionals from Vietnam, along with international speakers from Thailand, Taiwan (China), Japan and China, to discuss research findings, clinical experience and emerging trends in evidence-based medicine.
The two-day event includes nearly 200 lectures, scientific reports, satellite symposia, expert panel discussions and a competition recognizing outstanding young presenters. Sessions focus on specialties such as surgery, internal medicine, cardiology, neurology, oncology, organ transplantation, emergency medicine, diagnostic imaging, nursing, clinical nutrition and AI applications in healthcare.
A highlight of the conference is the live broadcast of surgeries and interventional procedures from operating rooms and catheterization laboratories, showcasing advanced techniques such as Da Vinci robotic urologic surgery, CORI robotic knee replacement, endoscopic spinal surgery, congenital heart interventions and complex coronary artery procedures.
Le Duc Nhan, Director of Da Nang Hospital, said that this year's conference marks a milestone as it is being held on an international scale for the first time.
Beyond its scientific presentations, the forum provides an important platform for healthcare professionals to connect and share practical experience, ultimately helping improve the quality of patient care, he said.
On the occasion, the Da Nang City People's Committee presented a certificate of merit to Dr. Tsai Chien-Sung, former director of Tri-Service General Hospital in Taiwan (China), in recognition of his contributions to medical cooperation and professional development.
