The session will compare hub-and-spoke models of emergency cardiac care, examining what is working on the ground and how successful approaches can be scaled nationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Talking about the summit, <strong>Dr. Charit Bhograj, CEO &amp; Founder of Tricog Health India Pvt. Ltd.,<\/strong> emphasised that tackling cardiovascular disease in India requires more than just hospital care. It involves closing the gap between a patient&#8217;s first symptoms and their initial treatment. The National CVD Summit serves as a platform for states to exchange experiences and turn isolated programmes into a unified national approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The summit&#8217;s scientific committee is chaired by <strong>Wing Commander (Dr.) S. S. Iyengar, Consultant Cardiologist at Manipal Hospital, Bengaluru.<\/strong> Expert panels will span the full spectrum of cardiovascular health in India, including disease burden and risk factors, paediatric heart disease screening, women&#8217;s cardiac health, the growing role of AI in diagnosis and treatment, state-level implementation strategies, and the rising challenge of heart failure nationwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GoaKhabar: Cardiovascular disease kills more Indians than any other condition, accounting for nearly 30% of all deaths in the country.
