Die Heart Failure Working Group (AG-HI) the Austrian Cardiological Society (ÖKG) is committed to the important task of raising awareness of heart failure among the general public. This clinical picture affects around 300,000 to 400,000 people in Austria. The new BLOG provides information to those affected herz-aktiv.news News and videos in patient-friendly language.
Heart failure is the end stage of many diseases and requires not only early diagnosis but also stage-appropriate therapy. In order to achieve this goal, AG-HI relies on education, research as well as further education and training and maintains national and international cooperation.
Also this year the AG-HI invites you to traditional heart walking day one that is taking place for the fourth time. On October 5th the hike leads to the Tyrol region, to Kitzbühel on Schwarzsee. “It is a wonderful opportunity for patients with heart failure and their relatives to be active together, exchange experiences and find out more about the topic of heart failure,” explains Primaria Dr. Anna Rab.
