Message from the Scientific Program Chair
Dear Colleagues,
The Scientific Program Committee is thrilled to gather in person at the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists 45th Annual Meeting and Workshops in beautiful Portland, Oregon. The 2023 conference will celebrate the SCA’s incredible history and also marks the return of the always popular Gala Event!
Hot topics include multidisciplinary approaches to heart failure, an international panel on cardiopulmonary bypass, a mitral valve symposium, a beginner course in structural heart echocardiography and an expert panel on coagulation conundrums. And of course, we are celebrating the SCA past with a plenary session on the history of the society – learning from the past and recognizing that you are its future.
Sessions include experts from the world of cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, perfusion, critical care medicine, regional anesthesiology, law, and finance. Specific sessions are designed for trainees as the program offers a robust choice of sessions geared toward medical students, residents, and fellows. The workshops are state of the art, hands on opportunities to learn cutting edge technology from true experts in the field.
As always, cutting edge discovery will be presented via abstract presentations, the crowd-pleasing SuperEcho returns, and the PBLDs capture a vast array of topics.
The In-Person conference will once again be the primary draw – and a virtual option to participate is also available!
We are thrilled to welcome you to Portland in 2023!
See you there!
