A need for a new test method to determine the effective thermal conductivity of fire resistive materials at high temperatures has prompted ASTM International Committee E37 on Thermal Measurements to begin work on a proposed new standard, WK12643 , Test Method for Slug Calorimetry. The proposed standard is under the jurisdiction of Subcommittee E37.05 on Thermophysical Properties. According to…

ASTM International Subcommittee G01.10 on Corrosion in Soils will be conducting two round robin testing procedures on Tuesday, November 14, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. during ASTM meetings in Atlanta, Ga. One round robin will be for the development of a new standard test method to measure the oxidation-reduction potential (redox) of soils, while the other will address precision and bias for the 4…

ASTM International Committee E37 on Thermal Measurements is seeking participation in a new subcommittee, E37.09 on Biological Calorimetry. Since its inception, the focus of Committee E37 has been the creation of methods for the calibration and use of thermal analysis instrumentation. One of the first types of thermal analysis instruments that was developed commercially on a large scale was…

Two subcommittees of ASTM International G01 on Corrosion of Metals have recently reorganized in order to broaden the scope of their standardization efforts. All interested parties are invited to participate in the ongoing work of Committee G01 and its subcommittees. Subcommittee G01.09, formerly on Corrosion in Natural Waters, has been renamed Corrosion of Metals in Waters to reflect a broader…

A revolutionary new ASTM International standard will change the way in which healthcare professionals preserve and transfer healthcare information about their patients. The standard, E 2369, Specification for Continuity of Care Record (CCR), was developed by Subcommittee E31.28 on Electronic Health Records, which is under the jurisdiction of Committee E31 on Healthcare Informatics. The Continuity…

ASTM International Committee E31 on Healthcare Informatics has approved a new standard that will aid in defining the application of existing conventions for the structure and content of electronic health record systems that are used to support healthcare practitioners in a workplace setting. The standard, E 2473, Guide for the Occupational/Environmental Health View of the Electronic Health Record…

For over two years, clinicians and technical experts have been working with ASTM International and nine co-sponsoring organizations to develop the most needed standard in healthcare. The Continuity of Care Record (CCR) is a core dataset to be sent to the next healthcare provider whenever a patient is referred, transferred, or otherwise uses different clinics, hospitals, or other providers. The…

The ASTM International E31 Healthcare Informatics Committee and E31.28 Electronic Health Record Subcommittee advanced another step toward reaching consensus and having an ASTM-approved Standard Specification for the Continuity of Care Record (CCR). At its meeting on 26 April 2005, E31.28 successfully resolved a number of issues raised during the balloting period, by adding editorial…
