Abstract
The Fourth International Conference on Pediatric Mechanical Circulatory Support Systems and Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Perfusion was held at the Hilton Portland and Executive Tower, Portland, Oregon, May 22–24, 2008. Over 250 participants from 17 countries including Australia, Austria, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Sweden, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States attended this unique event. With the Fourth Annual Event, we continued to focus on the objective of our previous conferences, that is, to explicitly describe the problems with current pediatric mechanical circulatory support systems, methods, and techniques during acute and chronic support and to suggest solutions.1 Of the 101 slide and poster presentations at this event, 48 were invited lectures by leading scholars from around the globe on selected topics. The Conference Proceedings with details of the final scientific program, as well as all abstracts from slide and poster presenters and invited lecturers, are now available on the conference web site http://www.ohsu.edu/CPBConference.
