Workshops
Date & Time
Sunday, September 13th between 14:00-16:00
Workshop A: Must-know ECG Findings
- Master the recognition of essential ECG patterns and understand their clinical implications in real-world practice.
- Accurately identify key arrhythmias and conduction disturbances encountered in everyday cardiology.
- Interpret ECG changes associated with ischemic heart disease and underlying structural abnormalities.
- Utilize a clear, systematic approach to ECG interpretation across acute care and outpatient settings.
- Integrate ECG findings into effective clinical decision-making to enhance patient outcomes.
Workshop B: Approach to Diagnosing Common Echo Pathologies
- Develop a structured approach to evaluating common echocardiographic findings in clinical practice.
- Recognize key features of valvular, myocardial, and pericardial pathologies on echocardiography.
- Differentiate between normal variants and clinically significant abnormalities.
- Correlate echocardiographic findings with patient presentation and clinical context.
- Enhance diagnostic accuracy to support effective clinical decision-making.
Workshop C: Multimodality Imaging (CT, MR, Nuclear): Seeing the Whole Heart
- Understand the complementary roles of cardiac CT, MR, and nuclear imaging in comprehensive cardiovascular assessment.
- Recognize the appropriate use of each imaging modality across a range of common cardiac conditions.
- Identify key imaging findings in ischemic, structural, and functional heart disease.
- Integrate multimodality imaging into clinical workflows to support accurate diagnosis and management.
- Strengthen decision-making by selecting the right imaging approach for the right clinical scenario.
Workshop D: Cardiac Surgery Updates
- Review the latest advancements and techniques in modern cardiac surgery.
- Understand current indications and patient selection for common surgical interventions.
- Explore outcomes and evolving approaches in valve repair/replacement and coronary artery bypass surgery.
