Track: Geriatric and Veterinary Cardiology

Cardiovascular Meeting 2025

Geriatric Cardiology: The diagnosis, treatment, and management of heart-related diseases in older persons is the emphasis of geriatric cardiology. Individuals may become more susceptible to cardiovascular problems as they age, such as heart failure, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease. Geriatric cardiology tackles the special issues and considerations associated with cardiovascular treatment in the aged population, such as managing various comorbidities and age-related physiologic changes.

Topics to be covered:

  • Heart Failure Management in Older Adults
  • Cardiovascular Disease in the Elderly
  • Age-Related Cardiovascular Changes
  • Multimorbidity
  • Medication Management
  • Hypertension in Geriatric Patients
  • Role of Polypharmacy
  • Cardiac Surgery in Geriatric Patients
  • Atrial Fibrillation in the Elderly
  • Exercise and Rehabilitation in Older Adults
  • Palliative Care in Cardiology

Veterinary Cardiology is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of heart disorders in animals, with a particular emphasis on companion animals such as dogs and cats. This discipline entails treating disorders like congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, and congenital heart problems in pets. Veterinary cardiologists diagnose and treat problems in animals Veterinary cardiology, like human cardiology, uses diagnostic technologies such as echocardiographyelectrocardiography, and cardiac imaging to assess heart health and establish treatment strategies tailored to each animal's needs.

Primary Discussion Areas:

  • Cardiovascular Disease in Pets
  • Common Cardiac Conditions in Companion Animals
  • Innovations in Veterinary Cardiology
  • Diagnostic Techniques in Veterinary Cardiology
  • Surgical Interventions in Animals
  • Comparative Cardiology Studies
  • Role of Nutrition in Cardiac Health of Pets
  • Special Considerations

Both Geriatric Cardiology and Veterinary Cardiology serve critical roles in providing specialized care targeted to their respective populations, addressing age-related and species-specific cardiovascular difficulties. These domains provide insights on managing complex illnesses and improving health outcomes. We encourage the submission of abstracts that investigate advances, case studies, or creative techniques in these areas in order to improve our understanding and implementation of cardiovascular care in both old human and animal patients.
