SWIFT Survey
The PATRN Swift Survey was conceived for the 2017 APA ASM to conduct a simple, topical survey amongst ASM delegates during the conference. It is a stand-alone project that completes within 48 hours and can survey over 400 anaesthetic opinions. PATRN representatives should design the survey and run it with PATRN committee assistance.
Swift survey submissions for 2024 are now open!
The Swift Survey will be circulated at the APAGBI ASM on 20-21st May in Newcastle. The survey is now in its eighth year of running and is an exciting opportunity for trainees, especially as this year the meeting will be held in partnership with PACSA (Paediatric Anaesthesia Community of South Africa).
Closing date for submissions is 31st March 2024 and the submission form can be found below.
Any questions, just send us an email at patrn@apagbi.org.uk!
