IMPROVING NEUROTRAUMA CARE IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES

The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC) was founded  in 1998 after an initiative from the Scandinavian Neurosurgical Society. The committee is comprised of dedicated neurosurgeons, neurointensivists and anesthesiologists, as well as other specialists, from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. The SNC is independent of industry funding and members are supported by their respective institutions.


The SNC has published several guidelines for the management of traumatic brain injury. The book “Management of Severe Traumatic Brain Injury” was first published in 2012, and a second edition in July 2020. Preview the book on Springer’s website.

SNC organised the successful Nordic Neurotrauma Conferences in Lund, Sweden, in the autumn of 2017 and 2019. This intimate yet punchy event is happening again this autumn! Like before, we are able to offer attendants high-level international speakers, covering a broad range of neurotrauma topics. There are still seats left.

After a long wait, the third Nordic Neurotrauma Conference is being held in November 2023. The scientific program is ready and can be found here!
