2010 CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
CCCN Scientific Sessions
in conjunction with the
Canadian Cardiovascular Congress
Montreal, Quebec: October 23 to 27, 2010

 

CCCN is announcing a Call for Abstracts related to any aspect of cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular nursing for presentation at the Scientific Sessions of the Canadian Council of Cardiovascular Nurses in Montreal, Quebec from October 23-27, 2010.

Submissions are invited for presentation in English or French. Please indicate on the abstract form the language in which you would like to present.

Abstracts are invited in four presentation options:

• Workshop: Workshop presenters will offer an interactive discussion and analysis of a clinical topic or clinical practice issue in a forum lasting 50-60 minutes. The abstracts for the workshop sessions must meet the same criteria as the other submissions, and must outline the educational objectives, proposed content area and method of presentation (i.e., case study, multiple choice questions) for attendees to interact with each other and the presenters.
• Oral: Paper presentations will be 15 minutes in length with 5 minutes for questions.
• Poster: Posters will be displayed for one day of the two days of the CCCN conference. Presenters will be requested to be available at their poster location for 30 minutes on one of the two days. Poster presenters may be selected by the abstract review committee to present their poster in a moderated oral poster session.
• Oral or Poster: Submitter is willing to have their abstract considered by the abstract review committee for either an oral or poster format.

Submissions will be peer-reviewed in one of two broad categories: research and non-research. An abstract submission will be reviewed in the “research” category if it describes some aspect of an original piece of research. The “non-research” category includes theoretical, clinical application, literature reviews, etc. (i.e., submissions that do not describe an original piece of research). Clinical topics are strongly encouraged.

Please note, CCCN has an on-online submission process and all abstracts must be submitted on the CCCN web site at www.cccn.ca . On-line submission will open January 22, submission deadline is Feb 17 at 2400 hours. For more information visit the web site or contact cccnabstracts@rcpsc.edu.

 

Please note: Abstracts that have been previously presented at CCCN Scientific Sessions will not be accepted. Should an abstract be accepted for presentation at CCCN Scientific Sessions in Montreal, it may not be presented in duplicate at any other national conference before or within three months following presentation at CCCN.
