The German Society for Pneumology and Respiratory Medicine e. V. (DGP) is the largest and at the same time the oldest medical association for lung and bronchial diseases in the German-speaking region and sees itself as a forum for all doctors and scientists working in the field of pulmonology . Of the more than 4,000 members, almost 37% are women. The company's publication organ has been the journal "Pneumologie" since 1981.
tasks and goals
The society advocates “the promotion of science, research and teaching, advanced and advanced training, prevention, patient care and rehabilitation in the field of pneumology as a whole, including intensive care medicine with a focus on ventilation medicine”. It promotes the "cooperation of medical and associated professional groups" within the specialist field, sees itself as a public interest group and works closely with "other bodies and specialist societies". The company's central tasks are the organization of specialist congresses, the development of guidelines and statements, and the promotion of young talent. In addition to improving basic, advanced and advanced training, key concerns are increased awareness-raising and prevention with regard to the entire spectrum of lung diseases.
Annual congresses
The DGP's multi-day congresses are organized under the leadership of specially elected conference presidents and a program committee, and with the involvement of the society's scientific sections. In recent years the number of participants has averaged over 3,800. The ePoster and lectures have been available online since 2009. In addition to specialist lectures and advanced training events, the so-called lung run has established itself in the “supporting program”.
Prices
As part of the congress, awards will be given by the cooperating institutions Deutsche Lungenstiftung e. V. (doctoral award, creative student competition, WIR award) and the German Respiratory League e. V. (research grant for clinical pulmonology). Since 2009 the DGP has been awarding two research prizes, each endowed with € 10,000, for basic research and for clinical research, which will also be awarded during the congress.
Cooperations
The awareness-raising and public relations work anchored in the statutes is supported by the cooperation with related organizations such as the Federal Association of Pneumologists (BdP), the German Respiratory League. V. (DAL), the German Lung Foundation e. V., the German Central Committee for Combating Tuberculosis eV (DZK), the Association of Pneumological Clinics (VPK), the Scientific Working Group for the Therapy of Lung Diseases (WATL) and the regional societies for pulmonology (northern, central, western, Süddeutsche Gesellschaft), some of which arose from the DGP. The initiatives German Lung Day, the Institute for Lung Research (ILF) and the non-smoking alliance e. V. (ABNR) were co-founded by the DGP. There are also close ties to self-help organizations and international societies such as the Austrian and Swiss Societies for Pneumology or the European Respiratory Society (ERS), the latter of which is now part of a double membership. On the basis of common interests, concerted campaigns with regard to pneumological research funding, strengthening of the specialist area in medical training or political lobbying such as the protection of non-smokers (member of the non-smoking alliance [ABNR]) are developed. Another success of the DGP is the establishment of the German Center for Lung Research (DZL) in 2011 , a network initiated by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) that networks scientists at five locations, which in turn include several university and non-university partner institutions.
On World No Tobacco Day 2020, major medical associations such as the DGB, the Society for Pediatric Pneumology (GPP) and other health organizations jointly warned for the first time against seeing the e-cigarette as an option for people who want to quit smoking ”. E-cigarettes are not an alternative to smoking cessation, emphasized the associations and demanded nationwide “professional cessation programs that are available to smokers free of charge. declared DGP President Michael Pfeifer. The organizations supported the German Cancer Aid Foundation's demands for a ban on advertising for tobacco and cigarettes of all kinds. The President of the German Medical Association Klaus Reinhardt demanded: "In view of around 120,000 tobacco deaths annually, we need comprehensive legal regulations that can be implemented quickly and take effect at short notice."
Strengthening training and the next generation
The development of pulmonology as an independent subject has been a central concern since the DGP was founded, which is also expressed in dealing with questions of training and further education and the university anchoring of the subject. In order to make it easier for young doctors to get started in pulmonology, the DGP offers a forum with the advanced training academy established in 2013 that plans its own series of events or has set up its own website for young professionals. The DGP advocates strengthening pulmonology training in medical studies and the establishment of independent professorships at universities in order to be able to maintain the scientific level in international comparison.
history
Foundation phase
The DGP has its origin in 1910 a. a. Association of pulmonary hospital doctors founded by Ludolph Brauer (1865–1951), which initially merged with the German Society of Tuberculosis Doctors, which had existed since 1920, and then in 1925 to form the German Tuberculosis Society (DTG). The widespread disease tuberculosis had become the second most common cause of death in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century, but it was already a much discussed subject of medical diagnosis and therapy in the 19th century. Factors such as the frequent theming of tuberculosis at congresses of the Society for Internal Medicine, the discovery of the tuberculosis pathogen ( mycobacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis) by Robert Koch in 1882, the establishment of the sanatorium movement in Germany by Peter Dettweiler (physician) in 1892 and the establishment of the forerunner of today's DZK (1895) speak for themselves. The guiding founding idea was not so much a promotion of the "organ specialistism" as an interdisciplinary approach, namely the "summary of the science of tuberculosis, which is scattered and hidden in the most varied of subjects"
Under the chairmanship of Otto Ziegler (1879–1931), chief physician at the Heidehaus sanatorium , the DTG was officially founded on the occasion of a joint conference of pulmonary hospital and tuberculosis care doctors in Gdansk in 1925.
It was explicitly important to include not only practically active doctors but also "representatives of medical science (especially universities)". A further signal effect was expected from increased cooperation both on the medical level - as "unanimous cooperation between welfare offices, sanatoriums and hospitals" - and on the political-organizational level vis-à-vis authorities and the public. In addition, the importance and independence of the subject of pulmonary medicine was emphasized. In addition to the well-known tuberculosis specialists Ludolph Brauer, Otto Ziegler, Franz Redeker , Johannes Ritter, Oskar Pischinger and Ernst von Romberg , surgeons such as Ferdinand Sauerbruch were also among the founding fathers of DTG. At the center of the first activities were the meetings of the DTG, whose detailed minutes (“negotiation reports”) were published in the “Contributions to the Clinic of Tuberculosis” published by Ludolph Brauer.
time of the nationalsocialism
The Nazi history of the society and its predecessor organizations has been investigated in more detail as part of a project commissioned by the DGP and published in 2018 in the publication “Pulmonary Medicine during National Socialism” (2019 as an English-language short version “Pulmonary Medicine during National Socialism”).
During this time, the long-time managing director Julius Emil Kayser-Petersen (1886–1954), who held this office from 1925 to 1945, played a central role not only within DTG . As Secretary General of the Reich Tuberculosis Committee - formerly the German Central Committee for Combating Tuberculosis (DZK) - and through other key positions, Kayser-Petersen also had a significant influence on tuberculosis policy during the National Socialist era . The activities of the DTG continued to focus on the organization of congresses, with the number of members growing rapidly (from 379 in 1925 to over 1,000 in 1941), which, however, had to be discontinued due to the war between 1941 and the dissolution of the DTG in 1945, and not until 1947 after the company was re-established Chairmanship of Franz Ickert (1883–1954) could be resumed. Subject-specific discussions addressed the question of the inheritance of tuberculosis, the "ability to work and marry" of tuberculosis sufferers and their possible special status ("forced asylation"). They resulted in numerous restrictive ordinances and guidelines of the Reich Tuberculosis Committee, which became the central actor in the "total fight against tuberculosis". The catalog of measures included a. Marriage bans, compulsory admissions and asylum in special institutions in which terminally ill TB patients were left to die of starvation or were also specifically killed. TB sufferers also fell victim to medical experiments in concentration camps. Like all professional societies, the DTG introduced the “Arier obligation” for board members in 1933. In 1938 Jewish doctors were deprived of their license to practice medicine, and in 1939 the DTG complained of a "decline in membership due to the upheaval". Of the 56 DTG members that can be proven to be Jewish in 1932, three were still in society in 1939.
In addition to tuberculosis and obstructive respiratory and pulmonary diseases such as asthma and bronchiectasis, pulmonology also dealt with the dangers of smoking , which Fritz Lickint (1898–1960) in particular had clearly recognized. The tobacco control enforced by the Nazi regime led u. a. to the fact that in 1939 an absolute ban on smoking was recommended in all lung sanatoriums and tuberculosis hospitals.
post war period
The post-war period of the DTG was influenced by the again rampant tuberculosis, the prevalence of which developed in a similar manner in both German states in the following years. However, while in the GDR control was carried out across the board through central preventive measures ( BCG vaccination, X-ray examinations ), in the FRG the early use of the new tuberculosis antibiotics brought decisive improvements. The decline in tuberculosis in both German states since the 1950s was the cause of the so-called "Heilstätten-dying" and the development of specialist pneumological clinics with a focus on diseases such as lung cancer , asthma , chronic bronchitis and emphysema ( COPD ), interstitial lung disease and general lung diseases related to the environment and work. This development is also reflected in the name changes of the specialist societies in East and West (see table).
The professional societies in GDR and FRG
In 1957, when the "Scientific Tuberculosis Society in the German Democratic Republic " was founded, the DTG was split into a West and an East German society until reunification in 1991. During this period, both societies, u. a. Due to external factors such as standards of medical care and professional exchange opportunities, different developments, but also showed parallels, e.g. B. in the expansion of the subject to other lung diseases ( pneumonia , pulmonary hypertension ) and new examination techniques in lung function diagnostics and in endoscopy , the adaptation of specialist training (basic internal training with subsequent specialization) as well as in the establishment of subject-specific working groups and the development of recommendations .
Change after 1990
Medical advances in lung function diagnostics, bronchoscopy , the long-term oxygen therapy , the computer tomography indeed found their way into the work of the DGP, were also discussed in other forums such as the "Society for lung and respiratory research." The DGP went through a phase of stagnation from the mid-1970s, which was expressed in declining membership numbers (low in 1984: 900) and only underwent a change from the mid-1990s with the unification of the two German specialist societies in 1991 and due to a profound restructuring that was initiated from 1992 by a group of younger pulmonologists. The innovations included the establishment of scientific sections, the appointment of a congress president, the redesign of the annual congresses with plenary sessions, symposia, hot topic meetings and workshops as well as participation in high-profile PR campaigns for tobacco prevention by the German Lung Foundation (e . Be Smart Don't Start ). The positive effect of these changes can be seen in the increasing number of congress participants (see above) and members: Within the last 20 years the number of members of the DGP has almost tripled (1992: 1,117, 2002: 2,063, 2012: 3,093).
Structure and bodies
The work of the honorary board of directors and the full-time management is supported by a scientific advisory board made up of representatives of the most important pneumological organs in Germany. The 15 scientific sections and various temporary working groups that deal with aspects of the subject or the profession play a major role. The sections, in particular, reflect the links between pulmonology and other medical subjects and the main topics within society, and form forums for scientific exchange, for joint research projects and association policy initiatives. The i. d. Sections led by two speakers usually offer their members regular training and develop the guidelines adopted and published by the DGP.
The following sections have emerged since 1994 :
- Allergology and Immunology
- Endoscopy
- Occupational medicine , epidemiology , environmental and social medicine
- Infectious Diseases and Tuberculosis
- Intensive care and respiratory medicine
- Cardiorespiratory Interaction
- Clinical pulmonology
- Sleep medicine
- Pediatric pulmonology
- Pathophysiology and Aerosol Medicine
- Pneumological oncology
- Prevention , rehabilitation and tobacco control
- Thoracic surgery
- Cell biology
- Medical assistants, respiratory therapists and health professionals
The main focuses of the working groups are: 1. Further and advanced training in pulmonology, 2. Quality assurance and DRG in pulmonology, 3. Spiroergometry, 4. Pneumologists, 5. Tobacco prevention and smoking cessation, 6. Palliative medicine , 7. Promotion of young talent, 8. Respiratory therapists, 9 . telemedicine Pneumology.
Publications and recommendations
Since 1980 the DGP has developed over 100 guidelines and recommendations , partly in cooperation with other organizations (DAL, DZK) , which are coordinated by a guideline group set up specifically for this purpose. Incurred cooperative for example, the so-called CAP Guideline 2009 or 2010 the guideline "prevention, diagnosis , treatment and aftercare of lung cancer " News published the "Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis " In addition to position papers and statements on current lung-specific issues publishes the DGP in addition, recommendations z. B. on "Infection prevention in tuberculosis" (2012) and on "Stress tests in pulmonology" (2013). The “ White Paper Lung” 1996 emerged from the circle of the DGP . First published in 1996, it was last published in March 2014 in a completely revised version as a new edition by FRISCHTEXTE Verlag, Herne / Berlin (4th edition since 1996). In addition, a self-published textbook for respiratory therapists was published in 2016, which can be obtained from the DGP office.
Current topics such as the intense debate in Germany about air pollution and the questioning of the current EU limit values were discussed by the DGP in September 2019 with the international symposium “What can be done for better air? Research, evaluation and social change ”, in the context of which sustainable measures for air pollution control were discussed.
