“Less is More”
The SCCM Texas Chapter held it’s 7th Annual Symposium, Less is More in Critical Care, on October 19th and 20th, 2018 at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, TX. The Texas Chapter proudly hosted 22 speakers from all over Texas. Programming was attending by over 100 clinicians, volunteers, vendor partners, and speakers who earned continuing education credit for their participation. Highlights of the conference included a motivating keynote given by SCCM National Secretary, Dr. Greg Martin, on the theme “Less is More in Critical Care.” The symposium also held 11 research snapshot presentations. Lastly, the SCCM Texas Chapter went “green” this year and provided an App for download of all the Symposium activities! We want to thank all of our Symposium Committee members, Committee chairs, and volunteers who made it a huge success.
