Acute Cardiovascular Care, a demanding and rapidly evolving field of cardiology and intensive care medicine, regularly brings series of novelties based on science and every day practice. In addition to being exposed to high levels of psychophysical stress, health care professionals working in this field are continuously required to adopt new professional and scientific knowledges and incorporate them into daily routine.

Working group for Acute Coronary Syndrome of the Croatian Cardiac Society, since being founded twenty years ago, has always been following recent advances in the field of Acute and Intensive Cardiovascular Care, sharing the knowledge with Croatian colleagues and keeping this branch of cardiology in Croatia at the highest achievable level. For years, Working Group has been actively cooperating with the Association for Acute Cardiovascular Care of the ESC, as will be the case in this Symposium as well.

The organizers of this Symposium hope that the lecturers, chairpersons and other participants will share and gather contemporary knowledge in the field of Acute and Intensive Cardiac Care, exchange their experiences, but also find some time for professional networking.

With our kindest regards,

Sincerely,
