Novel tools and strategies in chronic heart failure
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Discover novel tools and therapeutic strategies in chronic heart failure management. This session presents early clinical experiences with innovative devices such as a chronically-adjustable pressure sensing interatrial shunt, synchronized diaphragmatic stimulation, high-flow pLVADs for cardiogenic shock, and renal artery denervation. Additionally, it reviews the impact of...

Refractory heart failure: combining oral therapy and device is key
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address refractory heart failure management through combined oral therapy and device interventions. This session helps identify patients needing treatment escalation, reviews contemporary cardiovascular intervention indications, and emphasizes achieving optimal synergy between pharmacologic and device-based therapies through clinical case discussions.

Acute and chronic right ventricular failure: focus on the weak link
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session discusses new diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of shock due to right ventricular infarction, explores why and how the failing right ventricle contributes to worsening heart failure, and examines device-based treatment opportunities for chronic right ventricular and tricuspid valve failure, including repair vs replacement. It...
