Awards available for trainees 

Trainee anaesthetists are invited to submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation at the GAT ASM. The authors of the six highest-scoring abstracts in the preliminary review will be invited to present their work orally and will be eligible for the Dräger Oral Presentation Prize. A cash prize and AAGBI medal will be awarded to the winner. The remaining successful authors will be invited to present a poster. Entries will be allocated into one of the following three categories depending on the grade of the presenting author: Foundation Year Doctors; ACCS/CT1/CT2 Doctors; ST3+ Doctors. A cash prize and a certificate will be awarded to the winner in each category. All audits, whether shortlisted for oral or poster presentation, will also be eligible for the Dräger Audit Prize. Audits should demonstrate good understanding of the principle of clinical governance and evidence of completion of the audit cycle.

Trainees are asked to submit an abstract of an interesting case that they have been involved in, and which has learning points that may aid other anaesthetists in their management of similar cases. The three best submissions as judged in the preliminary review will be invited to present their work orally at the ASM and the audience asked to vote for their favourite. The winning presenter will receive a Kindle and a certificate and each runner up a book token and certificate.
