Perfusion Safety & Best Practices in Perfusion 2009
Royal Sonesta Hotel
New Orleans, LA
June 24 - 27, 2009
MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT
AmSECT’s Perfusion Safety/ Best Practices 2009 meeting marks a unique union in Perfusion that combines the evolution of Perfusion Safety through simulation training and the translation of the evidence surrounding perfusion to the clinician. We have adopted a ‘Translational Science’ approach to the meeting and we are fortunate in having Dr. Frank W. Sellke, Cardiothoracic Surgeon in Boston MA, present the Keynote address on this topic.
In addition to Perfusion Safety topics, the New Orleans meeting incorporates the fourth Best Practices in Perfusion meeting. The Steering Committee has developed a framework that meets the mission and vision of the International Consortium for Evidence-Based Perfusion (ICEBP).
Mission: The International Consortium for Evidence-Based Perfusion (ICEBP) is a partnership and collaboration between perfusion societies, medical societies, clinicians and industry to improve continuously the delivery of care and outcomes for our patients.
Vision: To achieve this mission, we will focus our energies in two principal areas:
Registry
- Create an international perfusion registry and facilitate its implementation
- Identify gaps between current and evidence-based clinical practice
Guidelines
- Review, comment, and/or endorse evidence-based guidelines concerning the practice of cardiopulmonary bypass
- Collaborate with medical societies in the development of guidelines concerning the practice of cardiopulmonary bypass
Combining the Perfusion Safety and Best Practices in Perfusion meetings in 2009 creates a synergistic interaction that will provide meeting participants with opportunities to prepare for the fruition of evidence-based medicine and information that can be translated and strategically implemented to improve their current quality of delivered care. This meeting will be unique in that we are offering delegates over 100 hours of simulation training time, 10 interactive and dynamic sessions, and opportunities to interact with industry and express their clinical needs.
