NAP8 Local Coordinators

This NAP will investigate major complications of regional anaesthesia as well as perioperative spinal cord and peripheral nerve injury. We aim to assess the incidence, current practice and outcomes of these various complications.

Call for NAP8 Local Coordinators

The Royal College of Anaesthetists Centre for Research and Improvement (RCoA CR&I) is seeking Local Coordinators for each NHS and Independent Sector Hospital in the UK and Ireland.

Information on the role of the Local Coordinator can be found in the Local Coordinator Guide, which will be added here shortly and sent to all individuals who have registered interest in the role.

If you would like to be the Local Coordinator in your NHS, HSE or Independent Sector hospital then please email nap@rcoa.ac.uk.

Please see below details of the NAP8 Local Coordinators and Collaborators at each participating hospital.

Resources for Local Coordinators will be added here in due course.
