Abstract

In 2022, the British Cardiovascular Society celebrates the centenary of its foundation. Starting out as a small group of government-appointed physicians interested in heart disease, the Cardiac Club has grown and adapted to represent all those working in cardiovascular care and research. The historical stages of the organisation’s development are outlined, alongside major innovations in science and technology providing context for a rapidly changing medical world. Only a small part of the history of cardiology in Britain is told, with greater emphasis on describing the broader need for services, skilled workforce, healthcare policy and continuing education. Above all, the history of the British Cardiovascular Society is a story of people and places. The people are those with vision, attitude and leadership to improve the care of communities across the world. The places are those that enabled conversation, innovation and freedom to bring about change. It is hard to believe the remarkable progress in diagnosis, prevention and treatment of heart disease over 100 years, but a thriving modern Society must be the greatest legacy of its founders.
英国心血管学会的历史
2022年,英国心血管学会庆祝成立一百周年。心脏俱乐部最初是一个由政府任命的对心脏病感兴趣的医生组成的小组,现在已经成长并适应了代表所有从事心血管护理和研究的人。概述了该组织发展的历史阶段,以及科学和技术方面的重大创新,为快速变化的医疗世界提供了背景。英国的心脏病史只讲述了一小部分,更强调描述对服务、熟练劳动力、医疗政策和继续教育的更广泛需求。最重要的是,英国心血管学会的历史是一个关于人和地方的故事。这些人是那些有远见、有态度、有领导力的人,能够改善对世界各地社区的照顾。这些地方使对话、创新和自由得以带来改变。很难相信100多年来在心脏病诊断、预防和治疗方面取得的显著进展,但一个繁荣的现代社会一定是其创始人留下的最伟大的遗产。
