Description

The KIDS OR Training is a multidisciplinary capacity-building program designed to strengthen the knowledge and practical skills of healthcare providers involved in paediatric surgical and perioperative care. The training brings together surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals to enhance their understanding of the management of sick children requiring surgical intervention. Through theoretical sessions, specialized breakout discussions, and live operative case reviews, participants will build competence in delivering safe, timely, and effective paediatric surgical care. The program also promotes teamwork, decision-making, and adherence to best practices in perioperative management.
