Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This article reviews a selection of presentations at the 2010 annual meeting of the European Respiratory Society held in Barcelona, Spain, which was the largest congress ever in the field of respiratory medicine. The best abstracts from the groups of the clinical assembly (clinical problems, rehabilitation and chronic care, imaging of the lung, interventional pulmonology, diffuse parenchymal lung disease, and general practice and primary care) are presented in the context of the current literature. The 2010 European Respiratory Society (ERS) meeting congress was held in Barcelona, Spain, September 18-22, 2010. The largest congress ever in the field of respiratory medicine included a large programme, with both presentation of original scientific presentations with published abstracts, and many symposia devoted to synthetic presentation of medical literature and experience. Here is reported an overview of the abstracts of the Clinical Assembly based on scientific merit, novelty, and relevance. Due to space constraints, only a non-exhaustive selection in the field of the six scientific groups of this Assembly can be presented. They cover the spectrum of clinical problems, rehabilitation and chronic care, imaging of the lung, interventional pulmonology, diffuse parenchymal lung disease, and general practice and primary care.
