Step Inside the Learning
A NYSORA Conference is more than a program of lectures. It is a complete professional experience built around learning, connection, and the traditions that bring our community back year after year.
Each meeting combines current clinical updates, expert discussions, live demonstrations, debates, and emerging ideas across anesthesiology, perioperative medicine, pain, technology, and Al.
What Makes the Experience Different
Practical education led by experienced international faculty
Case-based discussions that connect evidence with real clinical decisions
Live demonstrations and immersive QUADRA ™ sessions Direct access to faculty in an open, collegial environment
Inspiring destinations that create space for conversation and connection
A growing tradition shared by clinicians from around the world
Continued learning after the meeting through the NYSORA educational ecosystem, including access to the Anesthesia Assistant and Nerve Blocks Apps
Conference Overview

Depending on the conference, registration may include:
Your learning does not end when the conference closes. Continue reviewing cases, techniques, and clinical decisions through the NYSORA educational ecosystem.
View Upcoming ConferencesQUADRA™ is NYSORA’s integrated method for teaching regional anesthesia through multiple synchronized views.
• 3D anatomy
• Live ultrasound
• Probe position and scanning technique
• Needle trajectory
• Animated local-anesthetic spread
• Clinical indications and procedural decisions
By showing these elements together, QUADRA™ helps trainees and practicing clinicians connect anatomy with the ultrasound image and the procedural plan.

Common questions about NYSORA Anesthesia Conferences
NYSORA Anesthesia Conferences are CME-accredited educational events in anesthesiology and pain management. They include both large international conferences with global faculty and destination-based Anesthesia & Pain Review programs designed for focused clinical updates in a more relaxed setting.
All conferences provide evidence-based education, expert-led sessions, and professional networking opportunities.
NYSORA offers two primary conference formats:
Both formats deliver high-level clinical education in regional anesthesia, pain medicine, and perioperative care.
NYSORA anesthesia conferences are designed for:
These conferences provide continuing medical education (CME) credits and practical insights applicable to daily practice.
Topics vary by conference but commonly include:
Each conference agenda is published on the individual event page with detailed session information.
Yes. Many NYSORA anesthesia conferences are accredited by recognized bodies such as:
The number of CME credits depends on the specific conference and is listed on the event page.
Attendance varies by format:
Large conferences generally feature full-day programming with keynote lectures, panels, case discussions, and networking sessions.
Review-style conferences often follow a structured daily schedule with focused educational sessions and designated time outside lecture hours.
The exact program schedule is available on each conference page.
Travel and lodging are not included unless otherwise specified.
Cancellations must be submitted in writing to [email protected].
Please confirm details on the specific event page.
Yes. All NYSORA anesthesia conferences include structured networking opportunities with faculty and peers.
Industry partners may participate during designated breaks. In accordance with CME standards, promotional activities are separate from accredited educational sessions.
