Conference on Computarized Electrocardiography

描述（由申请人提供）： 请求提供资金，以支持出版2004年至2008年心电图计算机化判读会议记录，并在此期间支付青年调查员会议决赛选手的会议登记费和机票费。在过去的几十年里，心电学的进步已经足够快，足以证明每年的ISCE会议。1987年，美国计算机处理的心电图数量达到5400万，现场有15,000多台具有分析能力的设备，因此该主题领域尤为重要。本次会议的目的是在基础科学家、临床研究人员、生物医学工程师、流行病学家、计算机科学家和电生理学家之间交流有关自动心电学进展的信息。大多数与会者来自学术组织，有相当多的国际参与;来自工业界的研究科学家和工程师也将派代表参加。参与者的多学科性质将允许深入探索科学/技术问题，例如从离子通道到整个心脏的缺血和心律失常的细胞机制，心电图成像，纤颤和除颤机制，自动外部和内部除颤器，植入式抗心律失常设备，缺血监测，发病率和道德的ECG预测因子，数字ECG数据库作为患者记录、HIPPA法规和QT离散度的一部分。计划在4天内举行8次会议，包括一次青年调查员会议。ISCE会议的理念，仿照戈登会议，是最大限度地增加讨论的机会。上午和晚上举行有相当长时间讨论的正式演讲。下午可在小型学习小组或研讨会中进行自由讨论，并举行海报会议。所涉及的科学领域与《心电学杂志》的临床心电图学家、电生理学家和生物工程师读者的兴趣完美匹配。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to support publication of the proceedings of the 2004 through the 2008 Conferences on the Computerized Interpretation of the Electrocardiogram and during that period to support the conference registration fees and air-travel costs for the finalists of the Young Investigators Session. Advances in Electrocardiology over the past several decades have been rapid enough to justify annual ISCE meetings. The topic area is particularly important with the volume of computer-processed electrocardiograms on the order of 54 million in 1987 in the United States and more than 15,000 devices in the field with analysis capabilities. The objective of this conference is to exchange information about automated electrocardiologic advances among basic scientists, clinical researchers, biomedical engineers, epidemiologists, computer scientists and electrophysiologists. The majority of participants are from academic organizations, with considerable international participation; research scientists and engineers from industry will also be represented. The multi disciplinary nature of the participants will allow in-depth exploration of scientific/technical issues such as cellular mechanisms for ischemia and arrhythmias from ion channels to the whole heart, electrocardiographic imaging, mechanisms of fibrillation and defibrillation, automatic external and internal defibrillators, implantable antiarrhythmic devices, ischemic monitoring, ECG predictors of morbidity & morality, digital ECG databases as part of the patient record, HIPPA regulations and QT dispersion. Eight sessions are planned over a 4-day period, including a Young Investigators' session. The philosophy of the ISCE conferences, patterned after the Gordon conferences, is to maximize opportunities for discussions. Formal presentations with considerable time for discussion are held mornings and evenings. Afternoons are available for free discussion in small study groups or workshops and for poster sessions. The scientific areas addressed ideally match the interests of the clinical electrocardiologist, electrophysiologist and bioengineer readership of the Journal of Electrocardiology.
