Disclosure of all relationships with industry and other entities (RWI) is required of every member of ACCF/AHA data standards writing committees and peer reviewers. This writing effort was initiated before the implementation of the updated ACCF and AHA policy on relationships with industry and other entities, which requires that a majority of the writing committee plus the writing committee chair have no relationships with industry and other entities relevant to the document. Relevant relationships disclosed by writing committee members and peer reviewers are listed in Appendixes 1 and 2 , respectively. The work of the writing committee was supported exclusively by the ACCF and AHA (and the other partnering organizations) without commercial support. Writing committee members volunteered their time for this effort. Meetings of the writing committee were confidential and attended only by committee members and staff.
