The 33rd Symposium Intensive Care + Critical Care is one of the most important association-independent platforms for continuing education and interdisciplinary exchange throughout Europe. It will take place in Bremen from February 15 to 17, 2023, and is aimed not only at physicians, but also at nurses and hospital administrators. The 33rd symposium will focus on the most important conclusions drawn from the pandemic and the resulting recommendations for action, on sustainability in medical operations and on the steadily widening shortage of qualified personnel.

In view of the dynamic changes in intensive care therapy and the associated stresses and strains on all those involved, highly qualified training and continuing education are enormously important in order to be able to meet the high demands. The annual three-day congress is jointly organized by three institutions: the Scientific Association for the Promotion of Clinically Applied Research in Intensive Care Medicine (WIVIM), Bremen-based HCCM Consulting GmbH, and CONGRESS BREMEN and MESSE BREMEN, M3B GmbH.
