ASTES is a multi‑tiered organization delivering a broad spectrum of activities—from publishing original research and hosting presentations at our annual congress to providing hands‑on training and certification courses.
The Society’s framework ensures members have access to a full suite of academic and professional development resources in trauma management and beyond.
The Albanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery accepts up to 60 submissions each year and is indexed in leading medical databases.
The Albanian Congress of Trauma and Emergency Surgery is a two‑day gathering held every November, featuring up to 120 expert presentations.
The Advanced Trauma and Life Support Course in Albania is an intensive 2.5‑day, hands‑on program, offered exclusively from ACS through ASTES.
The Albanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery (AJTES) is a peer‑reviewed, open‑access biannual publication devoted to the latest advances in acute care. We select up to 60 manuscripts—including original research, systematic reviews and clinical case reports—and subject them to a rigorous double‑blind review overseen by our international editorial board. AJTES reaches a wide network of clinicians, educators and researchers, helping to translate new findings into improved patient outcomes.

The Albanian Congress of Trauma and Emergency Medicine (ACTES) is a two‑day annual symposium held every November since 2016, bringing together clinicians, researchers and educators to advance the science and practice of acute care.
Each year, ACTES draws an ever‑widening circle of practitioners and trainees, fostering collaboration and peer‑to‑peer learning across multiple specialties.
The congress spotlights cutting‑edge studies and case presentations from both local and international experts in trauma and related fields, driving forward clinical innovation.

The Advanced Trauma and Life Support (ATLS) Course in Albania is the only program officially accredited by the American College of Surgeons, delivered biannually in small cohorts of 16 participants over an intensive 2.5‑day curriculum.
Certified ATLS instructors guide interactive, case‑driven seminars that explore critical decision‑making and evidence‑based trauma protocols.
Through realistic simulation stations, students practice essential procedures—airway management, hemorrhage control and rapid trauma assessment—to build confidence and competence.
