Association for Inherited Cardiac Conditions (AICC)
Third Annual Meeting & AGM
20th November 2013, Radisson Blu Hotel, Cardiff
Management of inherited cardiac conditions is currently one of the most rapidly evolving areas of cardiology. The last decade has seen major change in our recognition of these conditions from apparently rare isolated disorders, to a group which collectively are common and which may be associated with the tragedy of unnecessary sudden death.
Government, managers and clinicians have faced a major challenge as a result of this emerging need. Excellent work by charities and healthcare professionals led to the publication of the NSF Chapter 8, which for the first time mandated that cardiac networks provide services for such families. As a result much good work has been done, but provision has developed in a patchy, uncoordinated and inconsistent fashion.
There has been a pressing need for a professional body to provide a steer on these difficult issues. The AICC is now the established UK Professional ICC organisation and a unique amalgamation of experts from cardiology and genetics, which will represent all who work in the field of inherited cardiac conditions.
This will provide consistent, top quality education and training, advice on management and best practice, as well as acting as a forum for data collection, audit and collaborative research. Membership is open to clinicians, nurses, counsellors, scientists and professionals allied to medicine, as well as persons from organisations and charities involved in support of such families.
The AICC represents all who work in this often difficult, but nevertheless fascinating field of cardiovascular genetics.
Membership is open to clinicians, nurses, counsellors, scientists and professions allied to medicine, as well as to persons from organisations and charities involved in the support of families.
