Vascupedia is an open-access platform for everybody. The reason is that we aim to free education for medical professionals worldwide. However, every physician, researcher, nurse or technicians is welcomed to support this initiative and to be a member of this team, i.e. to be a Vascupedian.
Vascupedia is free for everybody and combines all-in-one:
1.) an active platform (Main Arena), where registered physicians or researchers (Vascupedians) can upload their scientific presentations, case reports, vascular images, reviews or questions to their colleagues. This platform is completely independent of the industry and the Vascupedians have the opportunity to highlight their work and to share their experience, to learn new techniques, to discuss on several issues regarding their daily practice and finally to foster their networking. Please check our instructions for authors and editorial policy before starting the upload of your presentation or video.
2.) a voting platform (Polling Station), where registered physicians or researchers can vote on a monthly basis on controversial questions, cases, and debates concerning different interesting topics in Vascular Medicine. This platform serves as a tool to address current practice worldwide, to define investigation topics of future clinical trials, to answer controversial issues in Vascular Medicine and to understand unmet needs of the physicians. The participants are able to see after the completion of their voting the opinion of an invited expert as well as the ongoing results.
3.) an exhibition platform (Exhibition Area), where registered companies provide a comprehensive and credible product information according to the indication for use. This includes features and characteristics of the product, animations, expert’s opinions, related literature and lectures, the save-the-date announcement of workshops and sponsored symposia, recorded video cases and links to webinars. This platform is supported by the industry and serves as a communication channel between Vascupedians and manufacturers. All companies are equally presented in alphabetical order. Hence, every Vascupedian has a fair overview of all manufacturers regardless the size of the company or number of the products.
