OF THE AAOMS Wednesday, September 20 through Sunday, September 24,1989
San Francisco, CA
This special issue of the JOMS provides an out- line of the 71st Annual Meeting. The official prelim- inary program and registration forms will be mailed to the fellowship later this month. Others may re- quest a copy from AAOMS headquarters after June 1 by calling l-800-822-6637 (in Illinois, l- 312-678-6200) or by writing to AAOMS, 9700 W Bryn Mawr Ave, Rosemont, IL 600185701.
The meeting, which will include five full days of continuing education, special events, and business sessions, will be held at the Hilton Square Hotel in San Francisco. The program includes six CPT cod- ing workshops, an ACLS and an ATLS course, an all-day risk management seminar sponsored by the AAOMS Mutual, the Chalmers J. Lyons lecture on “Osseointegrated Prostheses in Skeletal Repair and Reconstruction,” 12 major symposia and scientific sessions, 94 surgical roundtable clinics, 23 practice management clinics, 28 mini-lectures, four practice management mini-lectures, three practice manage- ment lectures, seven scientific abstract sessions, an “Eat and Learn” breakfast, five “Selected Read- ings in OMS” sessions, and a poster session.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION
Attendance at most of the annual meeting pro- grams is limited, and preregistration is strongly rec-
ommended. Spouses and auxiliaries must be regis- tered to attend any scientific, social, and spouse programs as well as the exhibits. Deadline for pre- registration is Wednesday, August 30, 1989. Regis- tration fees for the annual meeting will be included in the preliminary program.
HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS
The Hilton Square and the Part Fifty Five hotels in San Francisco will serve as the coheadquarters for the 71st Annual Meeting. The registration area and exhibition, as well as all the scientific programs and business sessions will be at the Hilton. Spouse programs and state and regional programs will be divided between the two hotels. Housing informa- tion and room reservation request forms will be in- cluded with the preliminary program. Deadline for room reservation requests is Monday, August 21, 1989.
CLINICS AND MINI-LECTURES
Attendance for each SRC and PMC is limited to 20 persons and is determined on a first-come, tirst- served basis. Preregistration is limited to a total of three clinics (SRCs, PMCs, or a combination thereof) per individual. Attendance for each mini- lecture is limited to 100 persons on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional tickets may be pur- chased on-site, based on space availability.
CPT CODING WORKSHOPS
Six CPT Coding Workshops, sponsored by the AAOMS Committee on Coding and Nomenclature and conducted by the Professional Medical Man- agement Corporation (PMMC) will be offered in conjunction with the annual meeting. Two concur- rent workshops will be offered from 9 AM until 5 PM
on Tuesday, September 19, Wednesday, September 20, and Thursday, September 21.
The Physician’s Current Procedural Terminology (CPT-4), published by the American Medical Asso-
ciation, will serve as the basis of the course. Reg- istrants may wish to obtain and review this publi- cation prior to the workshop. A study guide in- cluding oral and maxillofacial surgery problem sets, prepared by PMMC in conjunction with the com- mittee, will be distributed to attendees at the time of the course.
A Message From the 1989 Committee on Scientific Sessions
The 71st Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions in San Francisco will be even larger than last year’s Boston meeting, with an increase in the number of clinics and mini-lectures and the addition of such features as an “Eat and Learn” breakfast and “Se- lected Readings in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery” sessions. More than 200 clinicians have been cho- sen to participate in the 1989 meeting. The majority of the scientific presentations are made by AAOMS fellows and members, with invited guests from other specialties in dentistry and medicine augment- ing the scientific program. Speakers are selected because of their expertise in a particular subject and, with the exception of nonmember clinicians, no compensation is provided. It is considered both an honor and a professional obligation for fellows and members of the AAOMS to donate their time for the continuing education of their colleagues.
The Committee on Scientific Sessions, compris- ing nine members, is responsible for the overall de- velopment and implementation of the scientific pro- gram for the annual meeting and the clinical con- gress. The committee typically convenes twice annually, in May and November, as well as on-site at the meetings for coordination of the scientific program.
At its May meeting, the CSS reviews the past clinical congress; finalizes the surgical roundtable clinics, mini-lectures, and symposia for that year’s annual meeting; selects the abstracts, posters, and winners of the Merck Sharp & Dohme Resident Award; develops the format and program for the following year’s clinical congress; and begins plan-
ning for the next year’s annual meeting. In Novem- ber, the committee reviews and evaluates the past annual meeting’s scientific program, including all of the surgical roundtable clinics and mini-lectures; se- lects and develops new clinics, lectures, and sym- posia for the following year’s annual meeting; and finalizes the program for the upcoming clinical con- gress.
The CSS welcomes suggestions for topics and speakers for future annual meetings and clinical congresses. The committee encourages fellows and members to submit proposals for surgical round- table clinics, mini-lectures, and symposia for their review. Proposals should include a detailed outline, a 50-word synopsis, and a current curriculum vitae. This material must be received by October 1 annu- ally, and should be sent to Mary Lou Callaghan in the Education Department at AAOMS headquar- ters.
SYMPOSIA
Symposia for the association’s annual meeting feature up to six clinicians, and they typically last two to three hours. The symposia topics originate from fellowship suggestions, other agency recom- mendations, and deliberations of the CSS. Topics are selected more than a year in advance of the meeting. Once topics are chosen, individual mem- bers of the CSS or the appropriate association com- mittee are responsible for developing symposia pro- gram proposals for full committee review and final decision. The CSS then discusses and reviews the proposals for completion of the symposia programs.
SURGICAL ROUNDTABLE CLINICS AND MINI-LECTURES
Surgical roundtable clinics (SRCs) and mini- lectures (MLs) are popular with the AAOMS fel- lowship at the annual meeting. The SRC, first pre- sented in 1973, is a two-hour lecture/discussion that is limited to 20 individuals to allow for substantial interaction between the attendees and presenter(s). The format for the ML was developed in 1984 as an expansion of the SRC. The ML, limited to 100 in- dividuals, places less emphasis on discussion. Many of the MLs selected have been presented as SRCs at previous annual meetings.
Topics and participant proposals for the SRCs and MLs are selected close to a year in advance of the annual meeting. In choosing topics and present- ers, the CSS considers such factors as interest and/or pertinence of the proposed subject, knowl- edge and/or expertise of the proposed presenter in the subject area, and the adaptability of the pro- posed topic to the format of the SRC or ML.
The scientific abstract and poster sessions held at the annual meeting allow for presentation of new research, ideas, and methods of treatment. Entry forms for these sessions are mailed to the directors of oral and maxillofacial surgery training programs in December of the preceding year.
Abstracts are generally limited to one of several subject areas currently stimulating advances in the specialty. The deadline for abstract entries is April 1 annually. All abstract and poster entries are “blinded” prior to review by the CSS. The entries are then scored by committee members, and the papers with the highest average scores are selected without knowledge of the author(s) and/or institu- tions. Abstracts are selected based on scientific merit and expression of materials and methods, data, and conclusions as judged by the CSS.
Abstract presentations are limited to ten minutes each, followed by five minutes of discussion. Seven 2-hour abstract sessions are planned for 1989; thus, 56 abstracts are scheduled to be presented at this year’s annual meeting.
Posters, developed from abstracts, are presented during the poster session at the meeting. The poster session will run for three consecutive days (from 9 AM to 6 PM Thursday and Friday, September 21-22, and from 9 AM to 3 PM Saturday, September 23).
Posters are selected by the same scoring procedures used for abstracts; the number of posters is re- stricted to meet space availability at the meeting site.
