Established in 1987, we are a specialist medical society and charity. Our aims are to:

• Promote, fund and disseminate the results of research into the use of technology in anaesthesia and perioperative care
• Promote and facilitate education and training in digital health, with a focus on perioperative care
• Work in partnership with similar organisations such as ESCTAIC in Europe and the STA in the United States
• Encourage engagement of clinicians in ISOs such as HL7-FHIR, OpenEHR and SNOMED-CT through membership and partnership

Our membership

Our members are a diverse group of current and former anaesthetists, intensivists, and perioperative physicians, as well as other healthcare professionals with an interest in digital health.

Our membership network

We use the Slack platform as a tool for communication and collaboration. All SCATA members are eligible to join the Slack workspace, where they can connect with other members, participate in discussions and working groups.
