Fourth edition of "Giornate Cardiologiche Camilliane": annual scientific event by IRCCS San Camillo Lido di Venezia.
The "Heart and Beyond ...", a series of sessions over two days, upon the cardiovascular and other organs to compare reality specialist seemingly distant and independent.
... Heart and Psyche the existence of anatomic and physiological relationship between heart and brain is now known for some time, but still are not well-known mechanisms that underlie this complex relationship. Disorders related to cardiovascular disease such as stroke, often requiring neuro active drugs that act on brain systems neurotrasmettoriali against complications such as depression or mechanisms to promote motor recovery through neuronal plasticity.
The interaction between personality, mental illness and cardiovascular disease is another issue that is genuinely fascinating and little studied. Studies on the relationship between emotional stress and the risk of coronary heart disease have revealed an increase in stressful life events and situations at risk before the clinical manifestation of myocardial dell'infarto. Heart and Lung ... to compare the skills cardiologic and pulmonary specialist in the study and further development of themes of more recent detection in the respective branches as well as the implementation of guidelines for a synergy of preventive intervention, targeted and effective. This is to propose a line of conduct in the use of diagnostic methods, more and more complex and sophisticated, a knight of the two specialties, in order to streamline the diagnostic and therapeutic pathways to be proposed to the medical area. A basic medicine increasingly involved in approach to patients with cardio-respiratory disorder that requires to be supported in this role for an optimal treatment to reduce the costs associated with unnecessary testing and potentially harmful.
Heart and Kidney ... extremely topical. A combination of often overlooked in the past, that today the evidence-based medicine has placed in the foreground. The sick "kidney" is dying of ischemic heart disease and, conversely, the patient decompensated heart benefits of treatments that involve the kidney.
Heart and Diabetes ... another crossroads nell'inquadramento diagnostic and treatment of our patient. The cardiovascular complication in diabetes is a frequent occurrence and high socio-health. The diabetic patient is more prone to occur in coronary artery disease or to be more exposed to insufficient heart. Angina pectoris is abnormally frequent among diabetics with poor prognosis than in most non-diabetics. Diabetes appears, therefore, a decisive factor for heart disease itself. The study and treatment of traditional risk factors has certainly decreased the incidence of this complication, but it is still very far from target of therapeutic effectiveness desirable.
