6.2011 - MCC released MCC ECG Metrics version 2.0 [Summary Version] [overview of changes]

The MCC is pleased to announce that the MCC Board of Directors has approved the MCC ECG Performance Metric Steering Committee’s request to change the name of the initiative to the MCC Cardiopulmonary Performance Metrics Initiative.  The new name reflects the broadened scope of metrics that the initiative is discussing and developing at this time. The specific areas covered by this initiative will include:

          i.   MCC ECG Performance Metrics

         ii.   MCC Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Performance Metrics

        iii.   MCC Spirometry Performance Metrics

        iv.   MCC Echocardiography Performance Metrics

The above sets of performance metrics will contain a similar set of “core” metrics and area-specific metrics.

We hope you can join us for Cardiopulmonary WG meetings (see WG Calendar for WebEx links). Please feel free to share this invitation with other colleagues within your organization.
