QPEM, now in its 10th successful year, is once again offering a sophisticated and comprehensive conference program leaving no stone unturned. Based on the feedback from the past, we build on our previous QPEM objectives of providing a Top-tier conference for healthcare practitioners both regionally and internationally. We have brought together a distinguished group of accomplished academics and administrative experts, renowned for their publications and frequent presentations at both regional and international conferences.
These speakers have been chosen carefully as subject matter experts to contribute to the scientific program, which will showcase the best evidence-based practices for investigating and managing common and critical pediatric medical and traumatic emergencies.
Our prestigious conference offers a comprehensive array of topics, guaranteeing that QPEM 2026 provides valuable insights for everyone involved in the care of acutely ill or injured children, encompassing areas in various medical emergencies, trauma and toxic exposures in children. Alongside the exciting plenary sessions, attendees can choose from parallel tracks that cover a range of topics, including research and academic PEM, quality and patient safety, and specialized sessions on medical, toxicologic, surgical, and traumatic presentations in our Core PEM Track.
By the end of the conference, our multidisciplinary participants will not only have expanded their knowledge on various critical topics but also gained the ability to apply this knowledge in their daily practice, recognizing and managing common yet potentially serious conditions. The participants will improve their critical thinking skills and will be able to incorporate quality and patient safety goals into their practice.
“This activity is an Accredited (Category 1) as defined by the Ministry of Public Health’s Department of Healthcare Professions-Accreditation Section and is approved for a maximum of 20 hours”
The goal of the QPEM Annual Conference is to provide high-quality, evidence-based updates for healthcare practitioners involved in the urgent and emergent care of children. At the end of the conference, our multidisciplinary participants will have expanded their knowledge on a variety of key topics, be able to recognize and manage common but potentially serious conditions, improve their critical thinking, discuss research in PEM, and incorporate quality and patient safety goals into their practice."
