Heart failure – update on 27 May 2022 in Mannheim
Dear Colleagues,
Heart failure is an increasingly important challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of patients in the growing field of cardiology.
This multifactorial condition may present not only as ischemic cardiomyopathy, but may also result from a range of other underlying diseases.
Following the recent revision of the current European guidelines, this continuing education event will provide a concise overview of the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of the disease, while also considering its various causes.
We hope the event will have strong clinical relevance and look forward to welcoming you.
With collegial regards,
Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Akin
Prof. Dr. Stefan Baumann
Prof. Dr. Daniel Dürschmied
