My interest in this initiative

I am drawn to the Improving Heart Function initiative for its exceptional educational platform facilitating knowledge exchange on optimal heart failure care practices across specialities. The iHF's integrated approach combining guideline-directed medical therapy with evidence-based interventional strategies aligns perfectly with my comprehensive vision of cardiovascular care. Through this collaborative environment, I value how specialists from different disciplines can enhance their understanding of patient selection criteria for interventional procedures and develop optimal clinical pathways for follow-up care—whether in primary care, in Internal Medicine or Geriatric Medicine wards, in out-patient clinics, catheterisation laboratories, during hospitalisation, or post-discharge. I recognise iHF as a synergistic endeavour where all stakeholders benefit whilst collectively advancing heart failure patient outcomes.
