Months of preparation, planning and meetings paid off as the Maltese Cardiac Society delivered a very well-received two-day scientific conference.

We were treated to a series of high-quality talks delivered by both local and foreign speakers, including European Society of Cardiology President Prof. Cecilia Linde.

It was also a chance for attendees to take part in hands-on echocardiography sessions, ECG interpretation workshops and surgical wet labs.

This would not have been possible without the hard work of an amazing organising committee and the support of many sponsors and partners.

We might be a small National Cardiac Society but that doesn’t stop us from dreaming big!

❤️ Heart Valve Awareness Day

The Maltese Cardiac Society’s Heart Valve Awareness Day, organised by our Structural Heart Team, highlighted the importance of recognising heart valve disease early and ensuring timely access to specialist care.

🫀 Rapid referral pathways are essential to connect patients with the right team, allowing prompt assessment and appropriate treatment.

🏥 Surgical and percutaneous treatment options offer different approaches to repairing or replacing heart valves. A multidisciplinary Heart Team helps identify the most appropriate option for each patient, tailored to their condition and individual needs.

Thank you to the Structural Heart Team and everyone involved for raising awareness and championing better care for patients with heart valve disease.

Early recognition. Timely referral. Personalised treatment.

Another successful R.E.A.C.T. Advanced Cath Lab CPR training day.

Colleagues from multiple disciplines — including nursing, physiological measurement technicians, radiographers and cardiologists — came together to train in the prevention and management of cardiac arrest in the cath lab.

Through well-rehearsed, slick teamwork, the aim is clear: timely recognition, rapid coordination and the prompt delivery of life-saving measures when every second counts.

Super proud of our cath lab colleagues, whose dedication, preparation and teamwork continue to make a real difference for our patients.

The Maltese Cardiac Society is proud to support the organisation of these important training events, which strengthen multidisciplinary teamwork and help ensure the highest standards of care in critical moments.

❤️ Think Aorta. Think Life.

The Maltese Cardiac Society is proud to be one of the affiliated societies supporting the first ever campaign in Malta, an initiative spearheaded locally by consultant vascular surgeon Prof. Kevin Cassar.

The aorta is the body’s largest artery, carrying blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Yet many people are unaware of the risks associated with aortic disease until it becomes an emergency.

This campaign aims to raise awareness of the signs, symptoms, and importance of early detection. Knowing one’s family history, understanding risk factors, and seeking medical advice when symptoms arise can save lives.
