Scientific Programme ESC Congress 2018 Munich (25-29 August): Congress Report 8 2.1 Venue – Organisation Of The Programme 2.1.1 Villages All villages have two lecture rooms except for Village 6 (Arrhythmia) which featured a new room design, the “Library Room”. This room was used for special sessions with panel discussions and also used by industry as an overflow room for the Lecture Room KIEV. The Spotlight Village combined multiple topics most of which were related to the spotlight of the congress “Valvular Heart Disease”. 2.1.2 Hub This year the Hub was split into two areas. The Centre Stage hosted larger sessions including the LIVE CASES Sessions – LIVE IN A BOX – and Great Debate sessions. 2.1.3 Digital Health Area The entire Digital Health/eCardiology programme was held in this specifically designed area. Technology demonstration sessions were also held in the Digital Health Area based on the Call for Technology which was launched by the ESC this year. 2.1.4 Poster Area Moderated ePoster stations were redesigned to optimise acoustics and ato cater for a larger audience. The best poster screen was located in front of the respective Poster Board areas as in previous years. 2.1.5 Science Box The Science Box was specifically designed to host the oral abstract sessions in the traditional format of presentation. 2.1.6 Agora The Agora rooms hosted Rapid Fire abstract sessions as well as some special sessions which were suited to a casual / interactive environment. 2.1.7 ESC TV Stage The ESC TV Stage was positioned in ESC Plaza along with ESC Stand, Professional Member’s Lounge, Fellows of the ESC (FESC) Lounge. This year sessions such as “Meet the Trialist” were also hosted on this stage. ESC Congress 2018 Munich (25-29 August): Congress Report 9 2.2 New Structure For The ESC Congress Programme 2.2.1 ESC Topic List The new topic list was implemented this year in the programme for abstract submissions and in all related indexing of congress content. 2.2.2 New Schedule The size and scope of the congress programme combined with the increase in related activities (ESC Stand, ESC Professional Members’ Lounge, Digital Health Area), and the requirement of industry partners for increased visibility in the exhibition, led to adjustments being made in this year’s congress session schedule. Adjustments allowed for more time between sessions and a longer lunch break in order to avoid a time conflict with the industry lunch sessions. These positive changes enhanced the overall delivery of the sessions. The 2018 schedule was as follows: • Breakfast 07:45 – 08:15 • Morning 08:30 – 10:00 (90 minutes) • Coffee break sessions 10:05 or 10:10 – 10:50 • Late morning 11:00 – 12:30 (90 minutes) • Lunch sessions (Industry) 13:00 – 13:45 or 14:00 • Afternoon mession 14:30 – 15:45 (75 minutes) • Coffee break afternoon 15:50 or 15:55 – 16:35 • Late afternoon session 16:45 – 17:45 (60 minutes). Session formats and content were adapted to fit their assigned time slots either at the time of session construction or upon review once scheduled. 2.3 ESC Congress 2018 Programme 2.3.1 Programme Composition By Type Of Sessions Table 2.1: Programme Composition by Type of Session Abstract-based Programme 219 Abstract Session 30 Advances in Science 60 Best Posters 7 Clinical Cases 7 Moderated Posters 63 Poster Session 7 Rapid Fire Abstracts 38 ESC Congress 2018 Munich (25-29 August): Congress Report 10 Table 2.1: Programme Composition by Type of Session - Continued Abstract-based Programme 219 Special Session 1 Young Investigator Award Abstracts 6 Scientific And Educational Programme 339 Cardiology@Breakfast 13 Case-based Session 22 Debate Session 15 Expert Session 33 Inaugural Session / Award Ceremony 2 LIVE IN THE BOX 6 Main Session (ESC Guidelines 2018) 6 Special Session 57 Symposium 184 Late-breaking Science Programme 29 Late-Breaking Science 14 Hot Line Session 5 Meet the Trialist 10 Total 586 2.3.2 ESC Programme – Other Related Sessions Other related sessions in the ESC programme were organised around the scientific programme.

  • ESC Congress 2008 M U N I C H
    ESC Congress 2008 M U N I C H Munich Germany 30 August - 3 September Final Programme www.escardio.org Welcome address We have great pleasure welcoming you all to the ESC Congress 2008 in Munich. The ESC Congress is a unique forum where the world’s medical professionals meet with colleagues to exchange ideas and informa- tion in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Given the excellent programme we are confident that our congress will provide you with the very best in science and education. This year’s highlight theme is cardiovascular imaging. The exponential development in technology has resulted in the rapid integration of cardiovascular imaging into clinical cardiology. It is now unthinkable to manage patients with cardiovascular disease without the use of echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, magnetic resonance imaging or the most recent addition to the diagnostic armamentarium, cardiac CT. The latest technolo- gical developments will be discussed in Munich and particular emphasis will be placed on how and when to use which imaging modality in daily patient care. Once again the scientific programme as a whole has all the ingredients to make the congress a great success. The latest news in science will be presented at the Hot Lines and the Clinical Trial Updates and several of these sessions will be followed by specific “Meet the Trialists” symposia. Groundbreaking technological deve- lopments in the fields of imaging and intervention will be showcased in the FOCUS sessions, some of which will feature live action from clinics via satellite. In reaction to your feedback from last year we have expanded the range of practical How-To, Meet and Read with Experts sessions, they will continue to provide clear take-home messages for the practicing clinician.

Due to COVID-19 and the travel restrictions imposed to limit the spread of the virus, a physical ESC Congress could not be held, and ESC had to adapt and imagine a very different event.

  • ESC Annual Report 2006
    EUROPEAN SOCIETY OF Annual CARDIOLOGY ® Report 2006 President and Chief Executives’ Report to Members President and Chief Executives’ Report to Members It is our pleasure to report to you again on the activities of the European Society of Cardiology Board 2004-2006.This year we have completed a number of tasks. We will first list the new initiatives, and follow with the description of the core activities of the Society. Having achieved most strategic goals defined in 2003, the Board – in consultation with all constituent bodies – prepared a new strategy, defined in detail in a document available on the ESC Website. Most importantly, this document not only lists the goals of the Society for the next years, but also defines a new, simplified mission, proposes objectives describing how to achieve the strategic goals, describes the core values of the Society, and for the first time sets up the ESC Code of Ethics. Most relevant changes in the strategy include involvement in research, more active interaction with constituent bodies, and provision of global leadership in the area of cardiovascular health. The Board proposed several changes to the ESC Statutes, in order to assure clearer internal rules. We are also happy to announce two proposed changes in the ESC structure. First, a long discussion with EuroPCR and the Europa organisation resulted in an agreement to form the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI). This new structure, pending an approval of the General Assembly, will enable all existing European organisations representing interventional cardiology to join forces. We regard it as a big step forward in integration of the specialty of cardiology.
