The i nterna ti ona 1 symposi a on transcutaneous monitori ng have
dea It with the interaction between ideas and research, the
introduction of unconventional techniques into clinical practice,
and the joint efforts of researchers, clinicians, and industry to
design and manufacture prac tical equipment for noninvasive
monitoring. The First International Symposium on Continuous
Transcutaneous Blood Gas Monitoring took place in Marburg, West
Germany, from May 31 to June 2, 1978. This was the first major
international meeting exclusively devoted to transcutaneous blood
gas monitoring, and it was attended by the scientists who had
developed this technique or had been \'Jorking with it, by a large
number of doctors, mainly neonatologists who had just begun to use
the technique or hoped to do so, and, finally, a rather large
number of representatives of industry. The second symposium, with
the same title, was held in Zurich, Switzerland, October 14-16,
1981. This time the focus was, to a large extent, on transcutaneous
PC0 monitori ng, for whi ch equipment had become 2 commercially
available only a short time before. Fetal monitoring was also
discussed at length, as was the use of the transcutaneous
techniques in other fields, such as vascular surgery and
experimental animal research. The third symposium, October 1-4,
1986, was again held in Zurich. It \'Jas entitled "Continuous
Transcutaneous Monitoring," indicating that not only blood gases
but also other parameters could be monitored trans cutaneous ly."
