MESSAGE FROM THE ORGANISING CHAIRPERSON It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the Paediatric Anaesthesia Meeting organised by the College of Anaesthesiologists on 22 nd and 23 rd March 2013 at the Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. This two-day meeting is an opportunity for specialist anaesthetists, paediatric anaesthetists, paediatric intensivists, medical officers, nurses and allied health professionals to update their knowledge and improve their anaesthetic and intensive care management of children. The Scientific Committee has planned a wide-ranging programme with the ultimate aim of improving perioperative care of children undergoing anaesthesia and in the care of the critically ill children. The programme incorporates current topics and controversial issues which are relevant not only to the paediatric anaesthetists but also to the generalists. The meeting format will feature plenaries, lectures, panel discussion and debates. There are also two hands-on workshops which will address handling of the difficult airway in children and total intravenous anaesthesia in children. Three prominent speakers from the United Kingdom and local eminent speakers have been invited to share their expertise. The Paediatric Anaesthesia Special Interest Group, last held a similar meeting in 2003. This is a long overdue meeting. We look forward to your participation in this meeting.
