Case Submission: “Fostering Hemodynamics among Young Cardiologists”.
After over ten years, SOLACI returns to the country that hosted the first Regional Sessions: Guatemala. After such a long time, it will be our honor to return there in our mission to continue promoting interventional cardiology through an event that consists in an array of the most varied scientific sessions and activities.
It is with great pleasure that we hereby invite all young Latin American cardiologists specializing in hemodynamics to submit relevant clinical cases to the next SOLACI Sessions, Guatemala City, Guatemala, to be held on June 1st and 2nd, 2018.
Participants will be competing for the “best case” prize, which consists of complete coverage to attend to a SOLACI Session, including air fare, accommodation and registration. Winner will have the chance to choose amongst an upcoming SOLACI Session.
Submitted cases must be of educational value and must pertain to the field of interventional cardiology.
All cases will be initially evaluated by the appointed committee and shortlisted to the best 8, which shall be presented orally during our sessions. During these presentations, a second complementary evaluation will decide on the winner.
Case submission deadline: May 13th, 2018.
