| Program Committee February Update - 2009 Annual Meeting
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
The 2009 SAEM Annual Meeting will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana from May 14 – 17. The didactic and scientific portions of the meeting are now complete and the Program Committee is finalizing preparations for a tremendous meeting. Registration, hotel, and detailed meeting information can be found on the SAEM website. Make sure to register by April 6 for the early registration discount and book your room by April 11 for the reduced SAEM group rate. Please note that if you are speaking in one of the 33 didactic sessions, there is an adjusted registration fee schedule posted on the SAEM website.
We received many outstanding didactic submissions, 33 of which will be featured in the program. Based on evaluations from previous meetings and member suggestions, we are piloting “tracks” in the meeting. Didactic sessions will be marked based on content for ease in identifying pertinent sessions for attendees. The 4 targeted tracks will include: education, research, faculty development, and administration/ED operations. The didactic meeting grid will appear similar, though the sessions are organized to allow attendees to focus on topics that complement their interests and to avoid conflicts in sessions with similar content.
The deadlines for scientific abstracts and Innovations in Emergency Medicine Education (IEME) exhibits are also now behind us and, despite moving the deadline forward by one month, there was an increase in both the quantity and quality of submissions. There were 1,187 submitted abstracts (compared to 1,132 submissions for the 2008 Annual Meeting), of which 683 (58%) were accepted. The number of abstracts selected for the 2009 meeting is the largest number ever, representing a 20% increase over the number of abstracts presented last year. Approximately 20% of abstracts have been selected for oral presentations and grouped into content themes. The Program Committee tries to vary the themes and diversify the content presented in oral abstract sessions each year; not all high-quality research can be slated for oral presentations. As I have noted in previous newsletter articles, the abstract review and standardized scoring process is rigorous, with approximately 100 expert reviewers and 20 Program Committee reviewers. There are several levels of oversight to ensure a fair and comprehensive review process. However, due to the very tight timelines involved with coordinating, organizing, and publishing the large number of abstracts, there is no appeal process. In addition to scientific submissions, we had 83 IEME submissions, of which 20 were selected for presentation. IEME exhibits will be split into two groups, each presenting one day.
Based on positive feedback from the social events at last years’ Annual Meeting, we will again have the Opening Reception on Thursday evening (May 14), Networking Breakfast for all attendees on Friday morning (May 15), and the Third Annual SAEM Fun Run on Saturday morning (May 16). On Saturday afternoon, there will be a special session featuring a national dialogue on development of the Emergency Care Coordination Center within the Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate emergency care in the U.S. This session will be followed by a wine and cheese poster session Saturday evening from 4:30 – 6:30 pm.
Finally, you might consider coming to town a day early and catching the AEM Consensus Conference on Public Health in the Emergency Department, the CPC Semi-finals, Intensive Grant Writing Workshop, or the SAEM Leadership Academy.
Thank you to the SAEM office staff, the 2009 Program Committee members, scientific reviewers and investigators, didactic submitters, and many others that have helped create an amazing 2009 Annual Meeting. Please get your meeting registration in, your travel arrangements set, and prepare to join us in New Orleans!

Start Planning Your Trip to the Annual Meeting
It’s not too early to start thinking about the 2009 Annual Meeting in New Orleans, May 14 - 17. The Program Committee has been busy putting together an amazing meeting for you and we hope that you are planning to attend.
The SAEM Annual Meeting is the largest forum for the presentation of original research in emergency medicine. Over 2,000 emergency physicians are expected to attend. The Annual Meeting will include original research presentations (both oral and poster), Innovations in Emergency Medicine Education (IEME) Exhibits, and 33 didactic sessions.
The meeting will be held at the New Orleans Sheraton Hotel. The Sheraton Hotel places guests on historic Canal Street, bordering the French Quarter, just steps away from the Mississippi River, Harrah’s Casino, and Aquarium of the Americas. At the Sheraton Hotel you will experience gracious Southern hospitality in a style uniquely New Orleans.
The 2009 Annual Meeting has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint sponsorship of SAEM and University of California – Irvine. The University of California – Irvine is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
New Orleans is Jazzed to Welcome SAEM
There has never been a better time to visit New Orleans, for business or pleasure. The French Quarter is cleaner than ever before, we have a fresher hotel product, more restaurants, millions of dollars in improvements to the Convention Center and Superdome, and better hospitality, blended with the same culturally authentic, sensory experience visitors have loved for decades. In 2007, New Orleans welcomed 7.1 million visitors, nearly double the amount of visitors in 2006. New Orleans has exceeded those numbers in 2008 and is looking forward to an even more successful 2009.
New Orleans is many things …The Crescent City …a sportsman’s paradise … the birthplace of Jazz. It is a city teeming with music bubbling up from the streets, immersed in art and architecture, lavished in celebration and beauty. New Orleans is forever a feast for the soul. Come and see for yourself.
