I have just sent out the abstract data from the BJA116(2):177-91 (2016)

You could do worse than to read this!

At the recent Board Meeting in Munich two new Board Members were appointed to replace the two outgoing members.

The outgoing members are Professor Franz Kleber and Professor Paolo Palange. We are indebted to both these Board members for their invaluable assistance over some years. They will still remain as members of the Practicum Faculty.

The two new members are Professor Doctor Alfred Hager and Dr Daniel Dumitrescu.Both these people will be known to many of you and we wish them all the best in their new appointment.

European2016 Practicum on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing 2016

‘Click’ on this link to see the entire programme for this important event.

Dear colleague,
the 2016 annual CPX International congress “European Practicum on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing” will be held in Italy after 10 years since the last Italian edition. The congress will last from 26 to 29 October 2016 and the venue will be Centro Cardiologico Monzino, in Milan.
It is a very important event for all of us who are at the forefront in this field. Wasserman himself may come to Italy, but, since he is more than 90 years old, he could renounce.
I send you attached the official brochure of the congress with the scientific program.
The course is very intensive and gives a wide view across the CPX world.
For the first time we are going to offer three prizes of $1.500 each for the best three abstracts that will be presented on Saturday morning.

Thank you for your participation and advertising that you will give to the event.
Best regards,

Prof. Piergiuseppe Agostoni
CPX International President
Chief of Heart Failure, Clinical Cardiology and Rehabilitation Unit
Centro Cardiologico Monzino

The Peter Mac Hospital in Melbourne has just hosted a very sucessful 2nd Annual Meeting entitled Perioperative Surgical Home. The meeting addressed preoperative and post operative issues with lecturers including Professor Mike Grocott.  There were workshops on methodology for CPET and interpretation. We are grateful to Cortex for the supply of a machine and an experienced technician.

On Friday November 20th there will be a meeting at Peter Mac entitled “Robotic Surgery: Adaptive Strategies and Nuances of Anaesthesia Workshop

There is to be a EBPOM meeting on Friday 8th April 2016 at Peter Mac in conjunction with EBPOM (UK).

Have a look at the Australian chapter for information on the Peter Mac meeting

Please read the latest ‘Publication’. It is interesting even if it does not compare CPET.
