MCA Scientific Events 34th International Congress of ESPNIC 2025

The 34th International Congress of the European Society of Paediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care (ESPNIC 2025) is a premier global medical event organized by MCA Scientific Events. Scheduled for June 25–28, 2025, in Alicante, Spain, it serves as the foremost platform for science, education, and multidisciplinary emergency management in Neonatal and Pediatric Intensive Care Units (NICU & PICU). The congress offers an intensive program focused on the most seriously ill children, covering advanced techniques, vital support, and the latest clinical research.
Learning Objectives

To explore and integrate advanced evidence-based practices in pediatric and neonatal intensive care into daily clinical workflows.

To examine new approaches to managing life-threatening conditions, including severe lung diseases, systemic inflammation, and sepsis.

To enhance skills in utilizing specialized monitoring and life-support equipment, such as ECMO, mechanical ventilation, and neuro-monitoring tools.

To foster multidisciplinary collaboration in complex fields such as critical care nephrology, hepatology, and extracorporeal support.

To engage with the latest research and data science applications aimed at improving patient quality, safety, and long-term outcomes in critical care settings.

Target Audience

This congress is a scientific and educational professional journey designed primarily for healthcare professionals working in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU) and Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU). It caters extensively to pediatricians, neonatologists, critical care nurses, clinical researchers, and specialists aiming to master the use of clinical scales, instrumental tools, continuous therapies, and evidence-based support in critical environments.
Best for Intensivists, Neonatologists, Pulmonologists, Cardiologists, Nephrologists, Hepatologists, Oncologists, Neurologists, Endocrinologists, Infectious Disease Specialists, Emergency Medicine Physicians, Hematologists, Clinical Nutritionists, and Clinical Pharmacologists.
