Track: Coronary & Ischemic Heart Disease

Coronary & Ischemic Heart Disease

Coronary & Ischemic Heart Disease covers the full spectrum of atherosclerotic disease at Heart Congress 2027, from chronic coronary syndromes to acute coronary events. Sessions focus on risk stratification, revascularization decision-making, and the growing recognition of non-obstructive coronary disease.

Key Discussion Areas

  • Evolving criteria for revascularization versus optimal medical therapy in chronic coronary syndrome
  • What recent trial evidence means for antiplatelet duration after PCI
  • Detecting and managing microvascular and non-obstructive coronary disease (INOCA/MINOCA)
  • Risk stratification for acute coronary syndrome in the era of high-sensitivity troponin
  • The role of plaque imaging in predicting future coronary events
  • Improving secondary prevention adherence after a coronary event

Areas of Scientific Focus

  • Acute Coronary Syndromes
  • Chronic Coronary Syndromes and Stable Angina
  • Atherosclerosis and Plaque Biology
  • Antiplatelet and Anticoagulation Strategies
  • INOCA/MINOCA and Microvascular Disease
  • Revascularization Outcomes Research
  • Myocardial Infarction
  • Antithrombotic Therapy

Why Attend This Session?

Interventional and General Cardiologists, Cardiac Surgeons, Emergency Physicians managing ACS, Imaging Specialists, and Clinical Researchers in ischaemic heart disease will gain updated guidance on managing coronary disease across the acute-to-chronic spectrum, along with opportunities to share outcomes data and registry findings.

What You Will Leave With

  • Refined criteria for revascularisation decisions in stable and acute coronary disease
  • Updated antiplatelet and antithrombotic strategies post-ACS and post-PCI
  • Evidence on imaging and physiology-guided coronary interventions
  • A clearer framework for managing recurrent ischaemia and refractory angina
