The EAPCI grant provides a unique experience, to exchange and adopt knowledge, the ability to perform the most complex interventions with more self-confidence, and to learn a new procedure, transfemoral TAVI.
Assistant Professor Mila Kovacevic
The gain of knowledge from the EAPCI certification helped me in my everyday job in the CathLab, giving me more confidence in clinical practice and more ideas for clinical research. This reflected in a better, data-oriented
patient care and collaboration with colleagues.
