Dear Sir/Madam
Cracow, 23rd June 2005
On behalf of the
Organizing and Scientific Committee I would like to
warmly welcome the Participants, Lecturers and Guests to
the Second International Congress of the Polish
Resuscitation Council in Krakow, which will take place
under the Honorable Patronage of Konstanty Radziwiłł,
the President of the Supreme Medical Council.
 More than three years have passed since the founding of
the Polish Resuscitation Council and the establishment
of close co-operation with the European Resuscitation
Council (ERC). We now find ourselves as a result among
those nations which are achieving world standards of
education in the field of resuscitation. Moreover,
during these three years the Resuscitation Guidelines
2000 have been widely disseminated and popularized and a
team of instructors have been trained to the highest
possible European level with regard to the teaching of
basic and specialist resuscitation treatment.
Since medical resuscitation is rapidly changing under the impact of
advances in science the coming Congress will be a
harbinger of the new Resuscitation Guidelines 2005,
which will be published in November this year. The
lecturers at the Congress, the majority of whom will be
personally involved in preparing the new Guidelines,
will discuss what are today the most important and at
the same time also controversial problems of
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation as well as look at
expectations regarding both clinical practice and
general instruction in resuscitation including primary
school education.
The Congress will be preceded by
ERC-certified ALS, BLS/AED, EPLS and ILS courses as well
as a GIC instructors’ course. An International
instructors’ Day will be held in Poland for the first
time, during which ERC instructors will exchange
experiences and prepare a instructional conversion
program concerned with the new Resuscitation Guidelines
2005.
The end of June is also a special time to visit Krakow and its surrounding
areas and take advantage of our city’s unusually rich
cultural assets, which we wholeheartedly encourage you
to see.
We hope you have a
pleasant and fruitful stay in Krakow.
On behalf of the
Organizing Committee
