Abstract:In April 1975, the American College of Cardiology held its Eighth Bethesda Conference Conference on Cardiovascular Problem in Aviation Safety.
Perhaps the most meaningful purpose of this meeting was to make clear, in a structured fashion, the availability and pertinence of noninvasive and invasive methods of testing to ensure early identification of cardiovascular problems and, at the same time, qualify persons for aircrew service who heretofore would have been eliminated because of noncrucial abnormalities in the physical or laboratory examination.
It should be emphasized that this Conference was convened to identify the causes, clinical course and possible risks of cardiovascular disease in aviation medicine.
