Welcome to the 22nd Emirates Critical Care Conference and 3rd World Summit of the World Federation of Intensive and Critical Care.

Under the leadership of Dr. Hussain Al Rahma, this year’s conference promises to be an outstanding event, surpassing previous years, in content and in participation.

The ECCC, a leader in critical care conferences around the world, is a reference for the region and beyond. Faculty and participation are as diverse as the world of critical care.

The World Federation of Intensive and Critical Care is proud to partner with the organizing committee and the Dubai Health in this year’s event as part of a multi-year agreement.

During this year’s conference we will have the opportunity to experience world-class conferences, practical seminars and courses, and interactive sessions with first-hand contact with world leaders in critical care, including all disciplines of the specialty. As in previous editions, the World Federation of Critical Care Nurses along the local critical care chapter of the Emirates Nurses Association will have a prominent and leadership role, enhancing the value of the Conference and its role into multidisciplinary representation in critical care. I know we will all gain from this event.

I am looking forward to see you and personally greet you during these coming days.
