Trauma Week 2025

Register now 

The 2025 Trauma Symposium will run from 21–22 November 2025.

Theme: Navigating the brain injury spectrum: From severe trauma to concussion

Venue: Royal Adelaide Hospital

As professionals in Medicine, Nursing and Allied Health we are confronted with a wide spectrum of trauma which can be isolated or multi-trauma after a single event. This includes a wide spectrum of injury and disease, and the brain is no different and is frequently involved. There is, however, a range of disease mechanism leading to brain injury. It can, at one end, be a single significant event or repeated minor injuries or ‘concussions’, each potentially leading to brain dysfunction. The 2025 Trauma Symposium will explore this spectrum of injury from the significant single event to the multiple concussions and will look at the causes, treatment and options for prevention.


At this year's Trauma Symposium, there will be opportunity to learn from leading experts across surgery, emergency medicine, doctors, nursing, and rehabilitation and allied health, offering a holistic view of trauma care.

We have an exciting range of speakers and topics lined up. Stay tuned for the program, coming soon.
