17th Annual Symposium on New Advances in Blood Management
Westin Crown Center Hotel
Kansas City, Missouri
October 1-3, 2009

MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT
The American Society of ExtraCorporeal Technology is proud to announce the 17th Annual Symposium on New Advances in Blood Management. The meeting is dedicated to presenting the latest information on the field of perioperative blood management and its impact on patient care.
Major subject areas for the meeting include the following:
- Blood Management in Cardiac Thoracic and Vascular Surgery
- Minimizing Bleeding and Allogeneic Blood Transfusion Exposure
- The Role of Extracorporeal Interventions on Optimizing Perfusion and the Improvement of Cardiopulmonary Bypass
- Advances in Coagulation Monitoring: Present and the Future
- Mechanisms of Reducing Inflammation during Cardiopulmonary Bypass
- Autologous Platelet Harvesting and its Applications
Each session will have a minimum of three scientific sessions followed by a question and answer session. Speakers have been chosen who reflect the current state-of-the-art for all content areas and will report on both the physiological aspects of their subjects and on clinical studies. Emphasis will be placed on those interventions that have been scientifically shown, through techniques of evidenced-based medicine, to promote enhanced patient outcome.
This year the meeting will be held from October 1-3, 2009 at the Westin Crown Center in Kansas City, Missouri. Registration information can be obtained below.



The BBTS 27th Annual Conference
Manchester 10th - 12th September 2009
Manchester Central, Manchester
The BBTS Annual Conference for 2009 continues the theme from 2008 of providing an invigorating mix of topics from research in the blood centre to practical bedside transfusion. Plenary sessions include managing blood supply in both the developed and the less developed world, transfusion policies in major trauma; civilian and military including problems with ABO blood groups in transplantation and malaria. Parallel sessions range from the latest applications of genetics and stem cell culture to practical aspects of paediatric and platelet transfusion. The meeting should provide something for everyone with an interest in transfusion with many exciting talks by leaders and experts in the field. The conference will be held in the centre of Manchester and the social programme promises to make best use of the active night life of this bustling city!

Dr Jonathan Wallis, Chair of Scientific Meeting Administration Committee.
