From referral to discharge: European consensus on the TAVI care pathway
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Across Europe, TAVI programmes are under increasing pressure from rising demand, capacity limits and referral barriers. This EuroPCR 2026 session presents the European consensus on the TAVI care pathway and explores how data-driven, standardised approaches can optimise the patient journey from referral to discharge.
Bringing together clinicians,...
The continuum of valvular heart disease: a lifetime management approach
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session offers a comprehensive perspective on valvular heart disease through the lens of lifetime management, highlighting the need for strategic planning across aortic, mitral, and tricuspid interventions, illustrating how treating one valve can influence the progression and management of others. Gain insights into optimal timing...
DCB in contemporary PCI: evidence, technique and physiology-guided decision-making
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
