Summary of the “Power of the Heart – 2025” Conference

The All-Russian Conference with international participation “Power of the Heart – 2025” was successfully held in Saint Petersburg. Journalists from the “Izvestia” program on Channel 78 covered how the event unfolded.

This major scientific and practical event for the medical community was organized by the Cardiac Surgery Service of the N.I. Pirogov Clinic of High Medical Technologies at Saint Petersburg State University. Specialists from around the world gathered at the conference to discuss modern approaches to diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases, exchange experience, explore the implementation of advanced technologies in clinical practice, and study ways to improve patient referral processes for timely access to specialized care.

Patients requiring complex high-tech treatments come to the SPbSU Clinic from all over Russia. Thanks to the rapid decision-making process at every stage of treatment, the Clinic performs over a thousand complex heart and vascular surgeries annually — which is critical, since cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide. Such conferences by leading experts offer another opportunity to improve the quality of care and advance the field of medicine.

The coordinated work of highly qualified cardiologists, diagnostic specialists, cardiovascular surgeons, arrhythmologists, interventional radiologists, and cardiac anesthesiologists at the SPbSU Clinic enables the successful treatment of even the most complex cardiovascular conditions — including systemic atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, valve and aortic pathologies, atrial fibrillation, peripheral artery disease, and more. The Clinic also performs implantation of pacemakers and cardiac monitoring systems. Every patient receives an individualized program of diagnostics, treatment, and rehabilitation tailored to the specific nature of their condition.
