The UEMS European Board of Anaesthesiology (EBA) is pleased to support World Patient Safety Day 2025, taking place on 17 September under the theme “Safe care for every newborn and every child.”

The UEMS European Board of Anaesthesiology plays a leading role in setting European minimum standards for obstetric analgesia and anaesthesia, strengthening safety protocols for mothers and infants.
