Hong Kong - Shenzhen EM Conference

This post comes a bit late after my return, but things are fast and furious! The sabbatical ended with participation in the Hong Kong - Shenzhen EM Conference. This was a fantastic experience and introduced me to the challenges of communicating with physicians where English is a second or third language. Ever heard of Shen-Fu Injections for post-cardiac arrest syndromes! I certainly had not until this conference. By communicating and reading only in English -- are we missing out what the rest of the world has to offer?
