Clinical Case Programme

The ESC Committee for Young Cardiovascular Professionals has designed a very strong, practical, educational and interactive programme. Two rooms in the Research Gateway area will be dedicated to the presentation of the clinical cases: the Clinical Case Corner and the Clinical Case Station. 

Clinical Case Award Session

Four cases will be selected to be presented in the Clinical Cases Award session.
Presenters will be in competition and their presentation evaluated on the following criteria:

• Originality of the case
• Case Management
• Presentation (demonstrating learning points from the case)
• Answers to questions

The results of the competition will be announced during the Awards Ceremony. Each finalist will receive an Award certificate and a prize - €2,000 for the winner and €1,000 for each runner-up. Each finalist of the Award session will benefit from free registration to the congress.

Presenters whose clinical case is selected for presentation in the Award session will receive specific instructions.

Clinical Case Sessions

Presenting your clinical case during ESC Congress 2023 will allow you to give your work worldwide long-term exposure and multinational connections with all subspecialty professionals.

Clinical cases will be presented in highly interactive and educational sessions.
Clinicians will present their cases to two experts on the topic who will moderate the session, facilitate interaction with the audience, prompt discussions, and challenge the presenters and the audience.
Case presenters are required to upload their slide presentations by 1 August.

Uploaded case presentations will be organised by topic and featured on the online congress platform during the event and 2 weeks after. Case presenters will be able to discuss their findings with peers. This platform will allow continued discussions during the event, with interaction functionalities such as the rating of the presentation, number of views and comments. Case presenters will be able to participate and follow the conversation on their clinical case(s) throughout the event.

Case presentations will then be featured on ESC 365 - the cardiology knowledge hub, with 110,000 users and 4.1 million online views.

More information on the presentation formats will be sent to the presenters whose case has been accepted after the results announcement.

European Heart Journal – Case Reports (EHJ-CR)

Four cases amongst the top-rated ones will be selected by the Editorial Team of the EHJ-CR and offered the opportunity to be published in the European Heart Journal – Case Reports, free of charge. Authors whose case is selected will be contacted accordingly.
