ESCWGA/NASPE/P experts consensus statement: living anatomy of the atrioventricular junctions. A guide to electrophysiologic mapping. Working Group of Arrhythmias of the European Society of Cardiology. North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology.

Current nomenclature for the AV junctions derives from a surgically distorted view, placing the valvar rings and the triangle of Koch in a single plane with anteroposterior and right-left lateral coordinates. Within this convention, the aorta is considered to occupy an anterior position, whereas the mouth of the coronary sinus is shown as being posterior. Although this nomenclature has served its purpose for the description and treatment of arrhythmias dependent on accessory pathways and AV nodal reentry, it is less than satisfactory for the description of atrial and ventricular mapping. To correct these deficiencies, a consensus document has been prepared by experts from the Working Group of Arrhythmias of the European Society of Cardiology and from the North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology. It proposes a new, anatomically sound, nomenclature that will be applicable to all chambers of the heart. In this report, we discuss its value for description of the AV junctions and establish the principles of this new nomenclature.

Collaboration in emergency medicine research: a consensus statement.

The role of collaboration in medical research and how it applies to emergency medicine (EM) research are discussed. The guidance of the Division of Health Sciences Policy of the Institute of Medicine is reviewed. Application of the principles of collaborative efforts and recognition of each individual's contribution are overviewed. Emergency physicians can and should be invaluable contributors to collaborative research. Collaborative research relationships, whether established at individual institutions or through national clinical trials, must be developed deliberately. The specialty of EM must make the necessary commitment of time and resources to ensure that these occur.

AAEM, CORD, and SAEM reach a landmark position: consensus recommendations to the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) for revisions to the FSMB May 1998 policy statement on physician licensure. American Academy of Emergency Medicine. Council of Emergency Medicine Residency Directors. Society for Academic Medicine.

As a result of months of meetings and deliberations coordinated with the Medical Board of California and chaperoned by the California Chapter of the American Academy of Emergency Medicine (CAL/AAEM), the Society for Academic Medicine (SAEM), the Council of Emergency Medicine Residency Directors (CORD), and the American Academy of Emergency Medicine (AAEM) recently reached a landmark agreement on recommendations to the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) pertaining to controversial May 1998 FSMB recommendations regarding physician licensure. Endorsed unanimously by the boards of all three emergency medicine (EM) organizations, the recommendations of this consensus have been forwarded to the FSMB and await its official response. The recommendations will also be forwarded to remaining EM organizations and to the medical community for comment and to enlist their support.

ESPE/LWPES consensus statement on diabetic ketoacidosis in children and adolescents.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (TIDM). Mortality is predominantly related to the occurrence of cerebral oedema; only a minority of deaths in DKA are attributed to other causes. Cerebral oedema occurs in about 0.3-1% of all episodes of DKA, and its aetiology, pathophysiology, and ideal method of treatment are poorly understood. There is debate as to whether physicians treating DKA can prevent or predict the occurrence of cerebral oedema, and the appropriate site(s) for children with DKA to be managed. There is agreement that prevention of DKA and reduction of its incidence should be a goal in managing children with diabetes.
