Experience Cardiology Beyond Borders!

ESC Congress 2025 together with World Congress of Cardiology, will transcend subspecialties, uniting groundbreaking science, pioneering technology, and unparalleled networking opportunities to advance all fields of cardiovascular medicine.

This Year’s Spotlight: Global Health

As we explore cardiology beyond borders, the spotlight of this year is 'Global Health', highlighting the shifting role of cardiovascular disease within the broader global health landscape.

We will focus on emerging threats and novel opportunities, addressing health disparities while leveraging new treatments, and adapt to varying healthcare environments worldwide.

ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines and Documents

This year, 3 New ESC Guidelines, 1 Focused Update and 1 Consensus Statement will be released, presenting the most up-to-date recommendations to inform clinical practice and improve patient outcomes.

Each release will be followed by an 'Ask the Guideline Task Force' session, based on an interactive Q&A with the Guideline Task Force Chairs and Members to provide an in-depth understanding of the new guidelines.

• 2025 ESC/EACTS Guidelines for the Management of Valvular Heart Disease
• 2025 ESC Guidelines for the Management of Myocarditis and Pericarditis
• 2025 Focused Update of the 2019 ESC/EAS Guidelines for the Management of Dyslipidaemias
• 2025 ESC Guidelines for the Management of Cardiovascular Disease During Pregnancy
• 2025 Consensus Statement on Cardiovascular Disease and Mental Health 

In addition, 'Guidelines in Practice' sessions will showcase clinical cases to illustrate the practical applications of the new recommendations.

Late-Breaking Science

Hot Line sessions in the main auditorium will unveil the first presentation of the primary endpoint(s) of novel clinical trials, recently completed, unpublished and poised to drive meaningful change in patient outcomes. Each presentation will immediately be followed by an expert review, offering deeper insights into the findings and their implications for practice.

Ask the Trialist sessions will take you beyond the results, giving you the chance to directly engage with the principal investigators. Dive deeper into the data, ask your questions, and connect with those at the forefront of these studies.

Late-Breaking Science Sessions will spotlight critical updates from clinical trials, registries, cohorts as well as observational and epidemiological studies. These sessions provide a unique opportunity to explore cutting-edge research and its potential to shape the future of cardiovascular medicine.

New this year! New Horizons in Cardiology Track

This new track will showcase cutting-edge diagnostic and therapeutic approaches that are reshaping cardiovascular medicine. From groundbreaking biological antibody therapies to advanced gene-editing technologies, we will explore innovations transforming the treatment of conditions such as heart failure, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, and more.

These emerging therapies promise highly personalised care and long-lasting impacts on cardiovascular health, offering a glimpse into the future of cardiology practice.

Clinical Evidence Track

This track  is designed to empower you with practical application of diagnostic methods and treatments, with discussions on how to implement evidence-based strategies effectively.

Topics will cover the integration of the latest clinical guidelines and key trials focusing on their impact on clinical-decision making.

Leave equipped with the tools and insights to translate cutting-edge evidence into impactful care strategies, ensuring better outcomes for your patients.

Digital Cardiology and Artificial Intelligence Track

Digital cardiology, including artificial intelligence, is redefining cardiovascular care by enhancing diagnostics, integrating data, and improving workflow efficiency.

This track will highlight how AI is driving personalised treatments, predictive analytics, and streamlined clinical practice to address the evolving challenges in cardiovascular health.

Discover how digital transformation is creating practical, real-world applications that are improving patient outcomes and clinical decision-making today and in the future.

Cardiometabolic Track

We will explore the interplay of obesity, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and their impact on cardiovascular health.

Cutting-edge therapies will be highlighted, including metabolic-targeting drugs, as well as interventional strategies.

Gain valuable insights into the integrated management of these cardiometabolic risk factors for effective prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Patient's Perspective Track

Discover valuable patient insights that go beyond everyday interactions.

This track will highlight diverse experiences, offering fresh perspectives that can enrich your approach to patient care, even in the face of time constraints in busy health systems.

General Cardiology for Physicians, Technicians, General Practitioners & Nurses and Allied Professionals

Tracks organised in collaboration with the Spanish Cardiac Society and the Spanish Association of Cardiology Nursing.

A programme designed specifically for Physicians with an interest in cardiology, including Geriatricians, General Practitioners, Nurses, Technicians, Pharmacists, and other Allied Health Professionals, which will provide clinical practice updates on General Cardiology and Cardiovascular Nursing.

Highlights for the Young Community 

Follow your congress journey through sessions selected by the ESC Committee for Young Cardiovascular Professionals particularly relevant for young cardiovascular professionals.
