This year marks the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Confederation of ASEAN Societies of Anaesthesiologists (CASA). The Presidents’ Round Table meeting was held during the 18th World Congress of Anaesthesiologists (WCA) on the 4th of March 2024.
All the Presidents affirmed their commitment to foster closer ties amongst the various partners as well as with our regional societies. We were pleased to welcome the Australia and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists, the Hong Kong College of Anaesthesiologists, Hong Kong Society of Anaesthesiologists and the Korea Society of Anaesthesiologists to the meeting.
We were privileged to have the co-Chair of the ASA Neuromuscular Monitoring Guidelines, Professor Stephan Thilen share his expertise on the recent guidelines. The Presidents of CASA have agreed to put forth a joint statement on neuromuscular monitoring.
