Es ist mir eine besondere Freude, Sie zum 61. Öster - reichischen HNO-Kongress, der von 13. – 17. September 2017 in Wien stattfindet, einladen zu dürfen. Der diesjährige Kongress steht unter dem Motto „Innova- tionen und Positionen“ und soll den derzeitigen Forschungsstand und aktuelle Weiterentwicklungen in unserem Fachgebiet wiedergeben. Rundtischgespräche, internationale Foren, freie Vorträge, Satellitensymposien, Seminare und Poster werden einen möglichst umfassen- den Überblick über die Neuentwicklungen in der Hals-, Nasen- und Ohrenheilkunde geben. Internationale Foren in englischer Sprache werden wiederum ein Teil des Kongress-Programmes sein, um den Kongress auch für Gäste und Teilnehmer aus dem Ausland attraktiv zu machen. In der Industrieausstellung werden Sie die Gelegenheit haben, sich mit den neuesten Entwicklungen der Medizingerätetechnik vertraut zu machen. Hier werden Sie auch über die neuesten Trends in der HNO-Pharmakotherapie informiert. Das Kongress-Programm wird – als Ausdruck der wichtigen Vernetzung mit der Industrie – auch hochkarätig besetzte Satelliten- und Minisymposien beinhalten, in denen Ihnen neueste Innovationen im Medizintechnik- und Pharmabereich näher gebracht werden. Nutzen Sie bitte die Essenspausen, um die Industrieausstellung zu besuchen und Kontakte mit den Firmen zu pflegen. Ohne Industriepartner ist ein Kongress in dieser Größenordnung nicht durchführbar – in einer wirtschaftlich schwierigen Zeit wissen wir das dankbar zu schätzen. Am Kongress-Samstag werden Themen abgehandelt, die besonders Kolleginnen und Kollegen in der Niederlassung und auch Allgemein - medizinerInnen ansprechen sollen. Ich möchte mich bei der Gelegenheit auch bei all jenen recht herzlich bedanken, die in der Kongressvorbereitung, Organisation und Programm- gestaltung mitgeholfen haben. Im Namen der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Hals-, Nasen- und Ohren- heilkunde, Kopf- und Halschirurgie lade ich Sie ganz herzlich zum dies - jährigen Kongress unserer Gesellschaft ein und freue mich auf einen fachlich interessanten und zugleich geselligen Kongress in Wien. Prim. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Peter Franz Präsident der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Hals-, Nasen- und Ohrenheilkunde, Kopf- und Halschirurgie 2 Grussworte Welcoming Addresses Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, dear Colleagues, dear Industry Partners, It is my profound honour to invite you to the 61st Austrian National Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery Conference, due to take place from September 13 – 17, 2017 in Vienna, Austria. „Innovations & Positions“ is this year’s motto and the conference will address both state of the art diagnostics and therapeutic procedures as well as current innovative developments in our specialty. Round tables, international forums and free lectures as well as satellite- and mini- symposia, seminars and posters will provide a wide-ranging overview of new trends in ENT-medicine. International panels, presented in English, will once again be part of the programme so as to make the conference appealing to guests and participants from abroad. In the industry exhibition, you will have a chance to have yourself brought up to speed on innovations in medical technology, as well as a chance to be briefed on the newest trends in ENT-pharmacology. The significance of being intertwined with the industrial progress so prominent in our field will be further reflected in the conference programme with high-profile satellite- and minisymposia, aimed to provide you with the latest developments in ENT-related technology and pharmaceutics. Please take advantage of the lunch breaks to visit the industry exhibition and meet with company representatives. Without industry partners, a conference of this magnitude would be impossible. In a period of economic change and a multitude of challenges, we acknowledge their support gratefully. On Saturday, the focus will be placed on topics of particular interest to colleagues in ENT-practice outside major surgical hospitals. There will also be focus on ENT-related topics of importance in primary care, to support general practitioners. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who supported me in planning and organising the conference and the scientific programme. On behalf of the Austrian Society of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, I invite you to take part in this year’s meeting of our society and look forward to a professionally interesting as well as socially pleasant conference in Vienna. Prim. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Peter Franz President, Austrian Society of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Head and Neck Surgery 3 Grussworte Welcoming Addresses Sehr geehrte Kongressteilnehmerinnen und -teilnehmer! In den Spitälern des Wiener Krankenanstaltenverbundes (KAV) werden 400.000 PatientInnen stationär und 3,5 Mio. ambulant behandelt. Mit seinen rund 30.000 Mitarbeiter- Innen gehört der Wiener Krankenanstaltenverbund zu den größten Gesundheitseinrichtungen in Europa. Derzeit setzt der Wiener Krankenanstaltenverbund das Wiener Spitalskonzept 2030 um. Damit wird die Gesund- heitsversorgung der WienerInnen auch in den kommen- den Jahrzehnten gesichert. Im Mittelpunkt steht die (© Bernhard Noll) Entwicklung moderner Schwerpunktspitäler mit speziali- sierten Zentren, in denen Know-how und Kompetenzen der klinischen MitarbeiterInnen gebündelt sind. In diesen Fachzentren wird eine größere Anzahl an PatientInnen behandelt werden, wodurch die Erfahrung bei der Behandlung komplexer Krankheitsbilder in den medizinischen Teams erhöht wird. Internationale Beispiele haben gezeigt, dass sich damit die Qualität der Behand- lung weiter steigern lässt und die PatientInnensicherheit erhöht werden kann. (© Weinwurm) Auch die HNO-Abteilungen des Wiener Krankenanstalten- verbundes werden neu geordnet, damit die PatientInnen in allen drei Regionen Wiens (Nord/Ost, Süd und West) bestmöglich versorgt sind. Die medizinische Weiterent- wicklung ist eng mit kontinuierlicher Fortbildung, Forschung und internationalem Austausch verknüpft. So lassen sich Behandlungsergebnisse zum Wohle der PatientInnen beständig verbessern. Wir freuen uns, dass der Österreichische HNO-Kongress 2017 in Wien stattfindet. Wir sind sicher, dass Sie – auch dank der anerkannten (© Bernhard Noll) ExpertInnen des Wiener Krankenanstaltenverbundes – ein spannendes Programm und ein interessanter Erfahrungs- austausch erwarten werden. Wir wünschen Ihnen einen erfolgreichen und bereichernden HNO-Kongress 2017!

  • Inequalities and Multiple Discrimination in Access to and Quality of Healthcare
    doi:10 This FRA report looks at multiple .2811/17523 Country codes discrimination with regard to certain minority groups. AT Austria BG Bulgaria CZ Czech Republic TK-31-12-170-EN-C EUROPEAN UNION AGENCY FOR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS DK Denmark EE Estonia EQUALITY FI Finland FRA HR Croatia HELPING TO MAKE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS A REALITY FOR EVERYONE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION HU Hungary IT Italy PL Poland PT Portugal Inequalities and multiple discrimination in access to and quality of healthcare and quality of to in access and multiple discrimination Inequalities Certain people are seen as particularly vulnerable to unequal treatment, because they share a combination of SE Sweden characteristics that may trigger discrimination. A Roma woman sterilised without her informed consent, for SI Slovenia example, has suffered discrimination not just because of her sex, as all women do not face this treatment, UK United Kingdom nor just because she is Roma, as Roma men may not face this treatment. The discriminatory treatment is based specifically on the intersection of her sex and ethnic origin. Although awareness of this phenomenon of multiple discrimination is on the rise, EU law has yet to adequately address it. Current EU law provides better protection against discrimination based on race and sex than on grounds of religion or belief, disability, age or sexual discrimination, making it difficult to tackle multiple discrimination. This research project aims to shed light on the experience of multiple discrimination in healthcare. It looks at how ‘multiple’ discrimination is legally addressed and examines relevant case law with a special focus on healthcare.

Freud´s way from child neurology to psychoanalysis on three levels. On a first level the major biographical steps will be Music is ubiquitous – in the history of mankind, there is no evidence of any societies sketched starting from initial scientific engagements already as medical student in without music. It can be assumed that music – singing, body percussion, and Brücke´s physiological laboratory and Claus´s zoological comparative anatomy, then drumming – has been a central part of healing rituals since ancient times. There are as young assistant at the Vienna General Hospital in T. Meynert´s laboratory working several historical examples of how music has been used in medical settings from on cerebral anatomy, conducting pharmacological experiments with cocaine and biblical to modern times. Music therapy as a health profession is still young.
