International Conference on Cardiovascular Imaging July 11-12, 2018 Sydney,Australia

Cardiovascular Research is to learn the basic, translational, and clinical research of cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular diseases, including congestive heart failure, hypertension, atherosclerosis, stroke, aneurysms, and vascular auto-immune diseases are the most common cause of death and disability in the United States, and account for approximately 30% of deaths and health care costs annually in this country and developed societies. The mission of Cardiovascular Research is to support interdisciplinary research in basic, translational and clinical cardiovascular sciences, including cardiovascular development, function, pathophysiology, pharmacology, genetics, genomics, and proteomics, and to apply this knowledge to better understand the causes of cardiovascular diseases and to pioneer development of new innovative therapies and approaches to prevent or treat them. 

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) or heart diseases are the disorders of the heart and blood vessels caused due to build-up or accumulation of fatty deposits on the inner walls of the blood vessels that supply the heart or brain. Heart attacks and strokes are usually acute events and are mainly caused by a blockage that prevents blood from flowing to the heart or brain. Strokes can also be caused by bleeding from a blood vessel in the brain or from blood clot. Cardiovascular disease includes coronary artery diseases (CAD) such as angina and myocardial infarction (commonly known as a heart attack,  Heart disease, or cardiovascular disease.

The cardiovascular field provides an excellent opportunity to study the process of innovation. In the past 20 years especially, a number of technological advances in diagnosis and therapy have significantly changed clinical practice. Cardiology now attracts top medical school graduates and as its practice has become increasingly interventional many of these new capabilities have diffused from tertiary medical centers to the community. These developments have contributed to observed reductions in death rates from heart disease and to improvements in the quality of life. Numerous techniques are available for producing images of the heart that provide valuable information for guiding diagnosis, patient assessment, and therapeutic intervention.

Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy specifically focuses on clinical cardiovascular pharmacology. And also it aims to improve the pharmacological treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease through interpreting and integrating new scientific developments within this area. Cardiac Pharmacology is for patients with cardiac diseases, and the different drugs associated with cardiovascular therapies.

Cardiovascular Nursing is a nursing strength that works with patients who experience the ill effects of different states of the cardiovascular framework. Cardiovascular nursing workable for treat the states of cardiomyopathy, congestive heart disappointment, heart dysrhythmia, myocardial localized necrosis and coronary corridor sickness under the heading of a cardiologist. Cardiovascular Nursing plays out the postoperative care on a surgical unit, heart checking, wellbeing appraisals, vascular observing, and stress test assessments. Cardiovascular attendants must have particular learning and aptitudes including electrocardiogram checking, defibrillation and prescription organization by consistent intravenous dribble. A cardiovascular attendant, all the more generally alluded to as heart mind nurture, is an expert who watches over patients heart issues. The attendant may perform push tests, finish wellbeing appraisals, watch over a patient after an operation, or nearly screen the patient's heart rate. Heart Nursing is looking after patients in danger in Cardiac issues and cardiovascular sicknesses

On the report of National Family Health Survey-3, the private medical Section remains the first origin of health care for 70% of family circle in urban areas and 63% of family circle in rural areas. Depends on public healthcare and private healthcare sections vary appreciably between states. Most of the public healthcare sites we can found  in the rural areas  and the poor quality appear from the disinclination of experienced healthcare suppliers to visit the rural areas. Accordingly, the maximum of the public healthcare areas dividing to the rural and remote areas relies on unpracticed and uninteresting interns who are assigned  to spend time in public healthcare hospitals or clinics as part of their curricular need. Some other important reasons are far distance of the public sector address, long waiting period, and discomfort hours of operation.

Molecular and Cellular Cardiology is the study of molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular biology. It focuses on discovering and studying novel pathways that regulate cardiac hypertrophy, aging and metabolic diseases with specific attention to translating bench findings to new bedside approaches and strategies. Genomics, stem cell biology, molecular biology, gene therapy, transgenic models and parabiosis different  techniques involves in it, and also it approach cardiovascular problems relevant to human diseases to develop solutions that we validate by performing in vivo studies.

Stem cell research  have remarkable potential to revolutionize the treatment of cardiac disease. The heart has a limited ability to regenerate damaged tissue after a heart attack. Current drug therapies slow the progression of heart failure but are not curative and heart transplants can only be offered to a very limited number of patients. Cardiac stem cells have the potential to differentiate into all the cells that make up the heart, including heart muscle cells, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Both embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, mature cells that are manipulated back to a stem cell state that can be harnessed to create new heart cells. The scientific team has created the technology to make heart cells that are immature, but in their research very few heart cells derived from stem cells integrate into the normal heart tissue as mature heart cells. At the HSCI, our researchers are focused on understanding how to take these new heart cells all the way to maturity and stability, so they can be used as an effective therapy.

Paediatric and Foetal Cardiology is a branch of medicine deals with the treatment of heart diseases in the unborn, growing and developing children. The division is actively involved in research aimed at preventing both congenital and acquired heart disease in children. Finally, the division is committed to educating the next generation of physicians, and offers advanced training in paediatric cardiology.

In order to provide all-round patient care, Paediatric cardiologists treat arrhythmias (variations in heartbeat rhythm), congenital heart diseases (present at birth) and disturbances of circulatory function.

Geriatric cardiology deals with the cardiovascular disorders in elderly people  and it is the branch of cardiology and geriatric medicine. Cardiac disorders such as coronary heart disease (including myocardial infarction, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias (as atrial fibrillation) and others are common and are a major cause of mortality in elderly people. Vascular disorders such as atherosclerosis and peripheral arterial disease cause significant morbidity and mortality in aged people.

Interventional Cardiology handles with the specific Cather based techniques to various structural heart diseases, non-surgical procedures for treating cardiovascular diseases and it is the branch of cardiology. Often, to avoid the need for surgery a thin, flexible tube called catheter is used to repair damaged vessels or other heart structures diseases. In addition, for an acute myocardial infarction the procedure involved in interventional cardiology for acts as a best standard of care. It involves in elimination of clots from coronary arteries and implementation of stents and balloons through a small hole made in a major artery. Coronary intervention will remain the dominant procedure for the interventional cardiologist, which leads to the development of new procedures in coming decade in proportional to the population growth. It is expected that interventional cardiology craves a new attention in the growth of valvular heart disease intervention. 

There are many types and combinations of drugs used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD), and the doctor will decide the best treatment combination for the situation. Cardiac Devices restore or maintain a rhythm and rate sufficient to meet metabolic needs. Implantable cardiac devices are a mainstay in treating cardiac diseases and preventing sudden cardiac death. There are different types devices,  which include pacemakers (PMs), implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Some drugs can interfere with these devices, while certain medications can prevent inappropriate shocks from the devices.

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, causing 1 in 3 deaths each year. That’s approximately one woman every minute. There are several misconceptions about heart disease in women, and they could be putting you at risk. Other types of heart disease, such as coronary micro vascular disease (MVD) and broken heart syndrome, also pose a risk for women. Arrhythmia is defined as , it is a problem with the speed or rhythm of the heartbeat. During an arrhythmia, the heart can beat too fast, too slow, or with an irregular rhythm. Tachycardia is a condition where heartbeat that is too fast  and the heartbeat that is too slow is called bradycardia. Most arrhythmias are harmless, but some can be serious or even life threatening.

Cardiology and rehabilitation focus on one goal: preventing heart attack, stroke and peripheral vascular disease for patients. Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death and disability in most European countries. Secondary prevention has become a cornerstone of treatment, but a majority of patients do not achieve guideline standards, predisposing them to progression of disease, recurrent events, and heart failure.  Diverse projects, for example, preventive cardiology and Cardiac rehabilitation programmes  are actualized and adjusted to therapeutic and social settings, can possibly effectuate a more advantageous way of life, better risk factor control and adherence with cardio protective medication.

 It includes case reports related to hypertension, arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, valvular heart disease, vascular disease, congenital heart disease and cardiomyopathy and gives an appropriate convention for all cardiologists by rendering their important clinical cases of late occurrence. Studying from medical cases provides valuable experience for clinicians, students and paramedical staff -members. Rare medical reports and conditions discovered through the latest methods of examination are energized. Moreover, studying diagnostic methods from medical cases and the interpretation of symptoms is significant to train and burgeon the thought processes which are being used in the clinical field.

Cancer and cardiovascular disease are the leading causes of mortality in many parts of the world. There are several reasons for both diseases occurring in the same patient. Coronary artery disease (CAD) and Cancer share risk factors such as age, use of tobacco and obesity. Other reasons may be the consequences of radio- and chemo-therapy  in long-term survivors of malignancy. These treatments have a direct impact on the heart, which require, in some cases, surgical correction. Malignancy can also occur during long-term follow-up after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). The increase in diagnostic facilities makes the detection of heart disease and treatable cancer also more likely.

Hypertension is a long term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. And  also known as high blood pressure (HBP).  High blood pressure is a common condition in which the long-term force of the blood against your artery walls is high enough that it may eventually cause health problems, such as heart disease. High blood pressure (hypertension) is the most important known risk factor for stroke. High blood pressure can cause damage to blood vessel walls, which may eventually lead to a stroke.You can control high blood pressure through healthy lifestyle habits such as exercise and the DASH diet and taking medicines, if needed.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to an area in the brain is cut off and people who have hypertension are four to six times more likely to have a stroke.

People with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher are considered obese. The term obesity is used to describe the health condition of anyone significantly above his or her ideal healthy weight. Obesity increases the risk for heart disease and stroke. But it harms more than just the heart and blood vessel system. It's also a major cause of gallstones, osteoarthritis and respiratory problems. Obesity is intimately intertwined with multiple health conditions that underlie cardiovascular disease including high blood pressure, diabetes, and abnormal blood cholesterol.  And weight gain is a frequent consequence of  the heart-damaging lifestyle choices such as lack of exercise and a  intake of fat-laden diet. Obesity also can lead to heart failure. This is a serious condition in which your heart can't pump enough blood to meet your body's needs.

Sports Cardiology will equip you with first-hand experience of cardiovascular evaluation of elite athletes, cardiac screening of athletes, managing athletes with heart disease, cardiac rehabilitation and emergency response planning in sport arenas. Most of the conditions that cause sudden cardiac death in young athletes are evaluated by an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), a non-invasive test which calculates the electrical activity of the heart. Athletes with authorized cardiovascular disease or those at risk have particular goals and objectives in mind. They want to continue to play their sport and be very safe. The main aim of the Sports Cardiology Center is to work with any athlete forth the spectrum - professional athletes, recreational exercisers, to weekend warriors to help them reach these goals.
