Important Scientific Sessions

Track 1: Interventional Cardiology and Endovascular Interventions:

Interventional Cardiology:
Interventional cardiology can be defined as an area of medicine within the subspecialty of cardiology that uses specialized imaging and other diagnostic techniques to evaluate blood flow and pressure in the coronary arteries and chambers of the heart, as well as technical procedures and medications to treat abnormalities that impair the function of the cardiovascular system. It deals specifically with the catheter-based treatment of heart diseases .

Endovascular Interventions:
Endovascular surgery is an innovative, less invasive procedure used to treat problems affecting the blood vessels, such as an aneurysm, which is a swelling or "ballooning" of the blood vessel. The surgery involves making a small incision near each hip to access the blood vessels. An endovascular graft, which is a special fabric tube device framed with stainless steel self-expanding stents, is inserted through the arteries in a catheter, a long, narrow flexible tube, and positioned inside the aorta.

Track 2: Heart Disease and Heart Failure:

Heart diseases are the disorders that have an effect on your heart. Diseases below the center disease umbrella embrace vas diseases, like blood vessel disease; rhythm issues (arrhythmias); and heart defects you're born with i.e. Rheumatic heart disease, inborn heart defects, ischemic heart condition, vas diseases, and heart generation. Heart failure could also be a condition during which your heart cannot pump enough blood to satisfy your body's wants. The term “Heart failure” doesn’t mean that your heart has stopped or it's on the point of finish off. However, coronary failure may be a serious condition that needs treatment.

Track 3: Cardiac Imaging and Arrhythmias:

Cardiac Imaging:
The optimal diagnostic approach for patients with stable chest pain and intermediate probability for coronary artery disease (CAD) is uncertain. In a trial that randomly assigned over 3500 such patients to initial coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) or invasive angiography, procedure-related complications were less frequent with CCTA, while rates of cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke) after 3.5 years and rates of patient-reported angina during the last four weeks of the trial were similar between the groups. CCTA may be an appropriate diagnostic test for patients with stable chest pain and intermediate risk of CAD, particularly if they have a high risk of procedural complications.

Arrhythmias:
Although atrial fibrillation (AF) is common and associated with thromboembolic complications, whether and how to screen patients for AF remain uncertain. In a trial that randomly assigned over 30,000 patients ≥65 years of age to AF screening with a single-lead handheld electrocardiogram during vital sign assessment or to usual care, rates of new AF diagnoses over 12 months were similar between the groups (1.72 versus 1.59 percent, respectively). However, in a subgroup analysis, new AF diagnoses were more frequent with screening among patients ≥85 years old (5.56 versus 3.76 percent). As the incidence of thromboembolic complications was not assessed in this short-term study, additional studies are needed to determine whether screening older adults for AF improves health outcomes.

Track 4: Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery:

Patients with elevated troponin levels after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) have a worse prognosis than those with lower levels; however, the threshold of elevated troponin that identifies patients with periprocedural myocardial infarction or at risk for early postoperative mortality has been uncertain. In a study of nearly 14,000 cardiac surgery patients that examined the association between postoperative day 1 troponin I levels and 30-day mortality, the threshold troponin associated with a higher mortality risk was 5670 ng/L (or 218 times the upper reference limit) among patients undergoing CABG and 12,981 ng/L (499 times the upper reference limit) among those undergoing other cardiac surgeries. These troponin I levels that predict 30-day mortality are markedly higher than those demonstrated in prior studies, which may in part reflect differences in the troponin assays used in these studies.

Track 5: Preventive Cardiology:

Preventive cardiology is the knowledge related to the prevention of cardiovascular disease, either its manifestation or its progression with the aim to avert life-threatening cardiovascular events and to reduce cardiac mortality. Preventive cardiology also calls for a different approach to our patients: it aims to influence the underlying systemic disease process of atherosclerosis, of which the acute events are just short manifestations. It focuses on the improvement of long term outcome rather than acute symptomatic relief and may have a greater impact on patient longevity than sophisticated interventions.

Track 6: Cardiovascular and Emergency Medicine:

Cardiovascular Medicine:
Cardiovascular medicine is the most comprehensive provider of cardiovascular services specializing in the prevention, detection, management and treatment of adult cardiovascular diseases. It is also a platform for postgraduate education and scientific work in the fields of cardiology, angiology, hypertension and cardiac and vascular surgery.

Emergency Medicine:
Emergency medicine, also known as accident and emergency medicine, is the medical speciality concerned with the care of illnesses or injuries requiring immediate medical attention. Emergency physicians care for unscheduled and undifferentiated patients of all ages.

Track 7: Women and Heart Disease:

The term heart disease refers to several types of heart conditions, including coronary artery disease and heart attack. Although heart disease is sometimes thought of as a man’s disease, almost as many women as men die each year of heart disease in the United States.

Despite increases in awareness over the past decades, only about half (56%) of women recognize that heart disease is their number 1 killer.

Learn more facts about women and heart disease:

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the united states, killing 299,578 women in 2017—or about 1 in every 5 female deaths.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for african american and white women in the United States. Among american indian and alaska native women, heart disease and cancer cause roughly the same number of deaths each year. For hispanic and asian or pacific islander women, heart disease is second only to cancer as a cause of death.

About 1 in 16 women age 20 and older (6.2%) have coronary heart disease, the most common type of heart disease:4

About 1 in 16 white women (6.1%), black women (6.5%), and hispanic women (6%)
About 1 in 30 asian women (3.2%)

Track 8: Cardiac Surgery and Heart Transplantation:

Cardiac Surgery:
A surgical procedure that is performed to resolve a health concern related to the heart is called a heart surgery or a heart operation. Heart surgery may involve:

Correcting damage in the heart, either congenital (such as a hole in the heart) or acquired
Repairing heart valves that control the flow of blood to and from the heart and maintain blood pressure
A procedure to implant a device in the heart such as a stent to stabilize and normalize heart function is a more common cardiac surgery
A heart transplant where a healthy heart from a donor replaces a damaged heart in a recipient

Heart Transplantation:
Heart transplantation is a surgery to remove the diseased heart from a person and replace it with a healthy one from an organ donor. To remove the heart from the donor, two or more healthcare providers must declare the donor brain-dead. Before you can be put on a waiting list for a heart transplant, a healthcare provider makes the decision that this is the best treatment choice for your heart failure. A healthcare team also makes sure that you are healthy enough to go through the transplant process.

Track 9: Hypertension and Obesity:
Hypertension:
Hypertension is a major condition that significantly increases the risks of heart, brain, kidney and other diseases. Blood pressure is determined both by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries.

Obesity:
Obesity is a disease including an excessive amount of body fat. Obesity is a health problem that increases risk of other diseases and health problems like heart disease, high blood pressure, certain cancers, and diabetes.

Causes of Obesity:

Physical inactivity
Overeating
Genetics
A diet high in simple carbohydrates
Frequency of eating
Medications
Psychological factors
Diseases like hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, polycystic ovary syndrome, and Cushing's syndrome also contribute to obesity.

Track 10: Cardiovascular Diseases and Disorders:

Cardiovascular diseases: Cardiovascular diseases involve the heart and blood vessels. Now it is the common cause of death. Age, sex, tobacco use, physical inactivity, excessive alcohol consumption, unhealthy diet, obesity are factors of heart diseases. Heart attacks and strokes are mainly caused by blood vessel blockage that stops blood from flowing to the heart or brain. Symptoms include: chest pain, discomfort on arms, left shoulder, elbows, jaw or back, difficulties in breathing, feeling sick or vomiting. People facing these symptoms should look for medical care immediately.

Some of the cardiovascular diseases:

Cardiomyopathy
Hypertensive heart disease
Heart failure
Pulmonary heart disease
Cardiac dysrhythmias
Endocarditis-inflammation
Myocarditis
Valvular heart disease
Rheumatic heart disease
Coronary artery disease
Peripheral arterial disease
Aortic aneurysm

Track 11: Pediatric Cardiology:

Pediatric cardiology deals with diseases of the heart in the growing and developing individual. As well as expertise in heart disease, pediatric cardiologists also need thorough training in general paediatrics, in order to provide all-round patient care. The initial valuation performed by the paediatric cardiologist might start with a physical examination using a stethoscope, after which more detailed investigations may be suggested.

Market Analysis Report

The mechanical heart valve market was led by aortic procedures in 2020. Growth, however, will not occur as this market is currently decreasing over the forecast period. These heart valves were rarely used to replace the tricuspid or pulmonary valves, and as a result, unit sales are decreasing. The largest limiter within this market is the need for anticoagulant therapy for the remainder of the patient’s life after the procedure. Despite this, advancements in technology surrounding the development of biocompatible polymers to reduce the formation of blood clots are underway. Patients would no longer need to use anti-coagulants and because of this, the market could experience growth.
