virtual Paediatric Multi-Disciplinary Exchange

Discussion of medical cases has always been a platform for rapid knowledge exchange between healthcare professionals and has played a major role in shaping diagnostics and treatments throughout the years.

However, such discussions are mostly done within institutions or cross institutions of similar patient demographics. Very few is said about such platforms across countries and institutions of difference income levels and living standards.

With the virtual Paediatrics Multi-Disciplinary Exchange (vPMDEX), we hope to bridge this gap by having institutions across the APAC region come together to showcase different patient cases across the different landscapes and demographics. By doing so, we aim to engage health care professionals throughout the region.

Every session, cases related to a selected topic will be discussed, the sessions will be held bi-monthly and is open to all healthcare professionals and industry partners in the region.

Our first session of the vPMDEx saw 150 healthcare professionals gather on Zoom to discuss complex clinical cases of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). The session was chaired by our own KKH expert, Dr Loh Ne-Ron and the cases were presented by Dr Lingling Xie from Chongqing Medical University, China and Dr Kavya Rajarajan from MRR Children’s Hospital.

The discussion explored evolving management strategies including the role of mTOR inhibitors in disease modification and long-term surveillance protocols. The session exemplified the value of international collaboration in advancing knowledge and harmonizing care practices, ultimately improving outcomes for individuals living with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex.

In our second session of vPMDEx, we discussed complex clinical cases on Neurofibromatosis in Children. The session was chaired by our own KKH expert, Dr Nikki Fong and Dr Enrica Tan, the cases were presented by Dr Harshal Agrawal from MRR Children’s Hospital.
