With a specific focus on aortic and cardiac procedures, the symposium aims to deliver a comprehensive update on the latest advancements and insights.

Advances in Critical Care 2024

The 5th Annual Advances in Critical Care Conference will feature speakers from the Texas Medical Center and around the country discussing all aspects of critical care. Topics will include the latest advances in sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), shock, trauma, and neurocritical care. Join us for cutting-edge discussions on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), mechanical circulatory support, and neuromonitoring. Breakout sessions will focus on ICU systems, team dynamics, and much more.

Igor F. Palacios, MD Lectureship and Symposium 2024

The Igor F. Palacios, MD, Lectureship and Symposium will use lecture-based discussions to promote the understanding of recent minimally invasive technologies for the treatment of congenital heart disease and advanced heart failure. Experts will also update participants on the application of Artificial Intelligence in cardiology.

ISEVS Interactive Cardiovascular Symposium & Houston Citywide Structural Forum

Houston’s premier hands-on endovascular event is held in the heart of the Texas Medical Center. This international symposium provides endovascular specialists with the latest information on the fast-changing treatment of endovascular disease. Didactic lectures from world-renowned cardiovascular interventionalists will teach attendees about cardiovascular imaging techniques and how cardiovascular care has transformed in the telemedicine era. The symposium also features an intensive hands-on workshop where attendees practice various interventional techniques. The course features tracks for novice, intermediate, and advanced cardiovascular interventionalists.

11th Annual International Academy of Cardiovascular Sciences

The 11th Annual meeting of the North American Section meeting of the International Academy of the Cardiovascular Sciences (IACS-NAS) will focus on new approaches for the prevention, diagnostics, and therapies for various cardiovascular diseases. These include base editing/gene therapy, stem cell research, hypertension, heart failure, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, peripheral artery disease, and carotid artery disease. The conference will also explore the potential benefits and challenges of artificial intelligence and machine learning in healthcare. Renowned cardiovascular scientists from around the world will deliver lectures and share their expertise with attendees, making this conference an excellent opportunity for building collaborative research programs and for young researchers to learn and grow. By attending, participants can gain cutting-edge knowledge and establish valuable professional connections to enhance their ability to improve health outcomes and save lives.

2024 Cardiometabolic Syndrome Conference

Cardiometabolic syndrome (CMS) is a complex medical condition associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and cost. It is increasingly appreciated that the condition is also linked to non-cardiac disease including fatty liver disease and cancer. The underlying pre-morbid conditions for CMS include hypertension, insulin resistance and type II diabetes, elevated serum lipids, and obesity. Despite a deep understanding of the roles these pre-morbid conditions have on cardiovascular disease, liver disease, and malignancy and increasingly effective treatment strategies, the most recent projections predict dramatic growth in each of the risk factors and subsequent clinical disease. This suggests that we need to look beyond standard healthcare solutions to the social drivers of health, new community partnerships, and innovative research programs if we intend to alter the trajectory of CMS. The proposed program will convene key stakeholders across a variety of disciplines to re-imagine new approaches for CMS.

2024 Perfusion Conference | #PerfCon2024

The Texas Heart Institute 2024 Perfusion Conference is designed to provide the multi-disciplinary team involved in the care of the cardiac patient with the most recent information regarding surgical and perfusion techniques. Experts in the fields of  cardiothoracic surgery, anesthesia, critical care medicine, and perfusion technology will present current best practices for patient care. This hybrid symposium will include two days of scientific sessions, case presentations, and panel discussions.
