aI receive significant compensation from the AHA precisely to provide protected time so I can co-edit the 2010 CoSTR and the 2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC. Thus, although I have a significant relationship, I think the purpose of the relationship is to help ensure the quality, consistency and timeliness of the both documents because I can devote the time to follow-through. One of the CoSTR sections that I will be helping to write and that I will be editing is the Education, Implementation and Teams section

This table represents the relationships of writing group members that may be perceived as actual or reasonably perceived conflicts of interest as reported on the Disclosure Questionnaire, which all members of the writing group are required to complete and submit. A relationship is considered to be “significant” if (a) the person receives $10,000 or more during any 12-month period, or 5% or more of the person's gross income; or (b) the person owns 5% or more of the voting stock or share of the entity, or owns $10,000 or more of the fair market value of the entity. A relationship is considered to be “modest” if it is less than “significant” under the preceding definition.

a

Modest.

b
