Congratulations to Raymond M. Planinsic, MD, FASA, who was invited to participate in an Expert Working Group of the International Consensus Conference on Enhanced Recovery After Surgery for Liver Transplantation in January 2022 in Valencia, Spain. Over 500 participants from around the world are expected to participate, including surgeons, anesthesiologists, intensivists, hepatologists, representatives of patient associations, statisticians, and ethicists.
Dr. Planinsic’s working group, which will focus on living donors, will prepare statements on specific questions, and debates with the experts and audience will take place during the conference. An independent non-expert jury will review the statements and make final recommendations. After the conference, the guidelines and statements will be published in a high impact journal.
