About the Congress

48th Argentine Congress of Cardiology 2022

WELCOME LETTER

A new Congress brings us together and a new challenge lies ahead of us: to organize one of the world’s best congresses in our specialty as we have been doing for years.

Our main protagonist: the clinical cardiologist.

Three intense days in which a multidisciplinary approach will be used to provide a comprehensive response to the problems we face on a daily basis in the doctor’s office or during hospital stay.

Round tables, courses, debates, interviews with experts and conferences will be the key to achieving our objective. All this activity will be focused on a broad and integrated view of cardiac and vascular pathology. Imaging specialists, interventional cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, will help us make the best decisions in a scenario in which patients have increasing frailty and comorbidities.

Optimizing this reality will be a priority, so the invitation to diabetologists, nephrologists, neurologists and hematologists, among others, through their respective Societies, will allow us to have a broader vision for correct decision-making.

International faculty of renowned experts will also help us to build and broaden our medical criteria in an increasingly globalized world, although with similar problems.

Special attention will be given to the Nurses and Technicians Seminar with whom we work on a daily basis being our main allies in our day-to-day work.

The Argentine Congress of Cardiology is the result of the selfless effort of our cardiological community that year after year demonstrates its mystique based on the highest quality and generosity in the transmission of its knowledge and experiences.

This year we will ratify this course and we invite you to be part of it.
