Welcome to Milano.

Dear Colleagues and Friends

It is a great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 17th annual meeting of the European Society for Computing and Technology in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care (ESCTAIC), to be held in Milano (Italy) from the 20th to the 23th of September 2006.

Since 1989 ESCTAIC members created a forum in which communication between clinical and technical disciplines could speak together. Anesthesiologists, intensivists as engineers and computer scientists started working together. Since then 16 annual meetings have been held and the community of technologically interested anaesthesiologists and intensivists as well as medically oriented engineers and computer scientists is growing.

This year we thought about a programme that promises to be innovative, including numerous prominent speakers covering topics including point of care technology, decision support systems, new biosensor technology, workflow process support and the new field of genomics and proteomics applied to clinical practice. The programme will also include tutorials with something for the novice and expert in this fast moving technological and clinical field. Socially, ESCTAIC regulars will hopefully recognize the usual warm informal atmosphere, and all what Milano and its surroundings can offer to our guests.

We look forward to welcoming you in our fashionable city during our annual congress.

Massimo Lamperti
(Congress Chairman)
