Dear colleagues
It is a pleasure to announce the 4th Indo-European Cardiology Update to be held on September 10th - 11th, 2022. Based on the tremendous success and wide acclaim for the Cardiology Update 2021, the organizers have assembled a truly spectacular scientific program for this year. The joint Indo-European collaboration in the field of cardiology from prevention to management of coronary disease and heart failure is an important avenue to decrease the chronic disease burden in India.
The proposed scientific agenda includes the latest trends in prevention including lipid disorders and hypertension, acute and chronic coronary syndromes and heart failure based on evidence and the most recent ESC Guidelines which are of paramount importance to the physicians in clinical practice. The course will further include state-of-art presentations by eminent Indian and European faculty members known for their clinical expertise in the most common cardiac conditions.
We are confident that the Indo-European Cardiology Update 2022 will be yet another milestone in professional education and in the annals of preventive cardiology. The attendees will gain additional clinical tools in the early identification of cardiovascular risk factors and in the management of cardiovascular disease in the community.
Best wishes and kind regards,
Thomas F. Lüscher and C. Venkata S. Ram
