The European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care is a European professional association of anaesthetists and anaesthesiologists. It is also active in the fields of emergency, intensive care, pain and perioperative medicine[1]

History

It was formed in 2005 as the European Society of Anaesthesiology through the merger of three previous organisations: the European Academy of Anaesthesiology, dating from 1978; the European Society of Anaesthesiologists, established in 1992; and the Confederation of European National Societies of Anaesthesiology.[1][2][3] In 2020 the name was changed to European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care, reflecting the expansion of the activities of the organisation into intensive care medicine, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

Research

ESAIC conducts research in various areas, including perioperative medicine, anaesthetic techniques and monitoring, intensive care medicine, pain management, patient safety and quality improvement, education and training, ethics and professionalism, and health services research. The society's research aims to advance knowledge and improve patient care in anaesthesiology and intensive care.[5][6][7][8]

The organisation provides funding for research projects, sponsors research initiatives, and collaborates with other organisations to advance the field of anaesthesiology and intensive care.[9]

Clinical practice guidelines

ESAIC develops evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for managing various conditions and procedures in anaesthesiology and intensive care.

The European Journal of Anaesthesiology, the academic journal of the society, was established in 1983; it is published by Wolters Kluwer, as is an open-access journal, the European Journal of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care.[10]

ESAIC also publishes other journals and newsletters, including the European Journal of Pain Supplements, the ESA Newsletter, and the Patient Safety Newsletter.

Education and examination

EDAIC stands for European Diploma in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care examination, is a two-part exam that evaluates knowledge of basic sciences and clinical subjects. It is considered an end-of-training assessment.[11]

Euroanaesthesia

ESAIC organises an annual congress Euroanaesthesia. It is one of Europe's largest gatherings of anaesthesiologists and intensive care specialists. The congress provides a forum for the presentation of new research, the discussion of clinical issues, and the exchange of ideas and best practices.[12][13]
