German Society for Interdisciplinary Emergency and Acute Medicine

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The German Society for Interdisciplinary Emergency and Acute Medicine eV ( DGINA ) is a German medical association in the field of interdisciplinary emergency and acute medicine . President of the DGINA is Martin Pin, chief physician of the central emergency department of the Florence Nightingale Hospital of the Kaiserswerther Diakonie Düsseldorf.

tasks and goals

The work of the DGINA is divided into several focal points, including education and training (including DGINA emergency campus), research, patient care, organization and structure and quality assurance (including DGINAzert), professional policy work, promoting young talent in emergency medicine (Young DGINA) and international cooperation.

The most important goal of the DGINA is the promotion and development of an interdisciplinary, professional emergency medicine in Germany as an independent specialist area, as well as the establishment and support of interdisciplinary emergency rooms. In May 2018, the German Medical Association added the additional training course "Clinical acute and emergency medicine" to the model training regulations. The DGINA sees this as an important step on the path to quality and the further development of emergency medicine in Germany.

The DGINA organizes an interdisciplinary congress every year, in which doctors, nurses, rescue specialists and all other professional groups involved in emergency medicine can take part. The last annual meeting took place in November 2019 in Bremen, the next annual meeting will take place from November 11th to 13th, 2020 in Wolfsburg.

history

The DGINA was founded in 2005 by the senior doctors of several emergency rooms. The nine founding clinics included both basic and standard care houses, specialty and maximum care providers and university facilities. Barbara Hogan, Asklepios Klinik Hamburg (Chair), Georg Altrock, Klinikum Offenbach (Deputy Chair), Markus Huntemann, Klinikum Lüdenscheid (Secretary), Peter-Friedrich Petersen, University Hospital Aachen (Treasurer) were represented on the founding board . Since then, the society has grown to over 1,300 members (as of October 2019) and today sees itself as a partner to those responsible in politics and health on the subject of emergency medicine.
