On behalf of venous-lymphatic World International Network
(v-WIN) foundation, we'd like to take the end of the year report opportunity to deeply thank all the Colleagues and Friends around the world who have made the annual mission accomplishment possible.
Therefore, not by coincidence, we start with the report of the VEIN MAP project, propelled by the will of offering a free tool to all the Vein-Lymphatic experts, to "promote GLOBAL SYNERGY, avoiding OVERLAPPING" in educational initiatives, during a new age of mainly hybrids events.
The GEO & TIME localization software allows all the Scientific Societies & Vein-Lymphatic Experts to autonomously upload their events for free, including meeting description, pictures, videos, documents, links. Moreover, by a simple click, the event can be shared on the Social Networks and added on the Calendar. With great pleasure, we report all the continents have been already enjoying this tool, which is at disposal of everyone in the dedicated webpage.
With the same will of stimulating global EDUCATIONAL TEAMWORK, from April 4 to 10, the VEIN WEEK project was developed, achieving the following main outcomes:
1. Direct engagement of 124 project developers.
2. Development of 78 events in one week.
3. Engagement of ALL continents, including previously silent regions.
4. In 7 days, 163.459 visualizations of the events uploaded in the VEIN WEEK MAP.
5. Together with many others, among the developed institutional interactions, of particular importance
were the ones with Italian Board of Physicians, the UK parliament group for venous-lymphatic disease, the Paraguay Ministry of Health, the International Society of Orthopaedic Surgery & Trauma, the European College of OBGyn.
v-WIN deepest gratitude goes to all the active developers, institutions and supporting companies who made the not for profit global initiative possible.
A special mention goes to ALFASIGMA, MEDI and PHILIPS for having made the project development possible in such an unbiased and moral way.
A detailed report of the initiative is available by a
click on the dedicated button.
In line with the above mentioned global teamwork, educational projects have been developed thanks to the collaboration with the most prestigious scientific societies, on the final steps of the "venous road to v-WINter DUBAI" as per the following pre-congress 2022 activities.
All the "venous road to v-WINter DUBAI" initiatives have been dedicated to increase multi-specialty and public knowledge on the the proper vein-lymphatic management. The mission has been enhanced bysurveysandvideo Interviews in theTRUE CAREformat, acronym of Together Reporting Unbiased Education & Certification And Regulatory Education. The project has included top experts, public and industry representatives, all together engaged in the patient protection against misinformation.
In this action line, a portal was created to allow all public and health professionals to report eventually encountered misinformation and proper evidence based data.
Everybody can report by a click in the dedicated button.
This initiative was enhanced during the v-WINter DUBAI meeting, officially presenting it among the institutional activities at the Italian Pavilion of the Universal Expo (the World Fair).
The results of the meeting and related scientific work will be published in the prestigious International Angiology Journal.
A sum up in layman's terms will constitute a multi-lingual booklet dedicated to the public.
An open access digital platform is already available and it allows proper vein-lymphatic evidene-based information.
v-WINter DUBAI meeting resulted in a global institutional success, bringing together 83 Scientific Societies from 69 countries with a total of 7023 in person and online attendees.
Next global project will be V-ITALy: a digital platform, an editorial work and a scientific hybrid gathering in the form of a mega-advisory board, engaging the 50 biggest experts from all continents and 150 in person attendees, while all the global vein-lymphatic community will be able to connect online.
The in person activity will take place in Albarella Island (ITALY) on May 25-27, 2023.
Several IN PERSON and ONLINE joint activities involving international scientific societies have been already delivered and are scheduled for the next months.
Among these, the major ones have been so far developed in Panama, Brazil and France.
Among the most meaningful 2022 digital projects, the release of an innovative App allows now to connect patients with doctors, calculating the thrombotic risk as per the Caprini score, while delivering it directly to the health professionals medical records, together with many other patient report outcomes and clinical scores, so contributing to vein-lymphatic medicine advancement.
On behalf of all v-WIN, once again THANK YOUto all the ones who have believed in teamwork and proper moral outside the box projects development for proper vein-lymphatic advancement all along 2022.
We remain at disposal, looking forward for gathering together atV-ITALy, discussing together what is VITAL we know of the current evidence and what is vital we develop together as new research lines.
