For questions about ePosters, view the FAQs below.
Abstracts must include only essential information for communicating the nature and results of the study. Abstracts not meeting the format requirements will not be reviewed:
Literature reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses are not accepted and will not be reviewed.
Projects that have not started or have no preliminary data to report will not be reviewed.
Abstracts must reflect either completed projects or projects in the final stages of completion with results available for inclusion in the poster (due in May, if accepted).
Abstracts must be in narrative format only―no graphs, charts, tables, images, or bulleted lists allowed.
Do not include personal identifying information or the facility or hospital name in the abstract.
Do not cite references within your abstract content.
There are three ePoster categories (see page 2 for specific content to be included in the abstract):
Evidence-Based Practice: should include information about the process and results of identifying and implementing evidence guiding practice change that is aimed at advancing clinical practice.
Quality Improvement: should include information about the project aims, documentation of improvement, and clear delineations of changes that sustain improved practice.
Research: should include information about the process and results of a study aimed at generating new knowledge relative to a specific research question to advance clinical practice.
This statement outlines the responsibilities of the primary author should the abstract be accepted for an ePoster presentation.
Authors are in a position to control the content of educational activities and must disclose whether there is a conflict of interest. All conflicts of interest, including potential ones, will be reviewed by ENA prior to the conference and the primary author will be notified if anything further needs to be addressed. The primary author will complete this form.
All abstracts are blind-reviewed by a minimum of three emergency nurse content experts selected from the ENA membership. Each section of the abstract receives a weighted score.
Notifications will be sent in late March. If accepted, you will be asked to submit a PDF version of your poster in May (exact dates TBD). Exact poster specifications will be provided upon acceptance.
