  1. Welcome to the 11th Nordic Experience meeting! The Human side of ECT May 25-27 2016 Nyköping, Sweden

  2. Background Started 2001 in Stockholm Initiativ by Donald Lillich and Björn Wahlund First inofficialmeeting 2001 in Stockholm, Löwenströmska hospital Formallyestablished 2003 Based on contacts and inspiration from prof. Andrew Crystal, founder of ACT in the U.S.A. After that, severalmeetings in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark. Last congress in Estonia 2014.

  3. Number of participants has increased Fig. 1 The participants come from different parts of healthcare as doctors, nurses and ass. nurses. The delegats also come from clinics of anestesia. Most of them come from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Baltic countries. The lectureholders are all international.

  4. Meeting of the board During approximately one year of activity, the board of NACT have about 4 to 6 meetings. Those meetings are mainly held at the location where the upcoming congress are supposed to be hold.

  5. Finance • The presentation of the budget happens every calendar year second to tax acclaiment to the Swedish tax authorities. This presentation is also open to all members at the annual experiance meetings. • NACT has nowadays a budget in balance. We didn´t have any money of our own until 2006. We have had great difficultis to control our budget since it almost only depends on what we get from the congresses but lately, thanks to our new cashier Cesar Sanhueza budget is under control. We don´t have any standard sponsors. The income is very heterogenic from year to year. • Anyway we see a trend of augmentation of the number of participant to our congresses and at the last meeting in Tallinn, 2014, Estonia, we had about 160 delegats. • It´s of great pleasure that we see such a great interest at our annual meetings. The participation from the actual working board is big. Especially when we get close to the congress period. We have before arranged almost everything ourselves but since tha last congress we have had great help from PerKarlsten. • We have from the Swedish tax authority an agreement of tax deprivation. The last calculation of the budget showed a total movement of about 1,1 milj SEK (126 440 Euro, or 164 179 US dollars). The total profit in balance, anyway, where 230,000 SEK.
