INDEX
DEAR PARTICIPANT
We are pleased to welcome you to the 25th Conference of
the European Wound Management Association. The conference
is organised in cooperation with the Tissue Viability
Society (TVS) and also marks the 35th anniversary of the
founding of TVS.
EWMA 2015 is dedicated to sharing, debating with, and
educating participants on the latest knowledge and developments
in wound management.
During the three exciting conference days, participants will
experience a diverse programme that includes keynote
sessions, free paper sessions, workshops, full-day
streams, guest sessions, and sponsored satellite symposia.
The conference theme is:
WOUND CARE – SHAPING THE FUTURE
A PATIENT, PROFESSIONAL, PROVIDER AND PAYER
PERSPECTIVE
Interdisciplinary teamwork and collaboration between
patients, professionals, and policy makers is essential for
facilitating good practice and providing continuity of care.
This will be even more important in the future as healthcare
systems throughout Europe have to cope with
increasing pressure to demonstrate efficient and costeffective
use of resources to optimise wound care with the
help of innovative procedures and practices. It is imperative
that all these perspectives are considered if we are to
realise the goal of successful wound management.
In addition to the scientific aspects of the conference, we
hope you will enjoy the capital of Britain with its dynamic,
urban, and international environment.
A warm welcome to London!
