Cardiomyopathies are complex diseases. Knowledge has been growing in the last decades, in part due to the enormous advances in imaging and genetics. These conditions are expressed by varied cardiac phenotypes and are a frequent cause of heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden death.

It is challenging to keep updated in the continuous evolution of the knowledge in this field. How to diagnose and manage, how to choose the best candidates for new or specific therapies, how to follow patients and their affected relatives, these are some of the educational needs regarding the clinical approach of patients with cardiomyopathies, which are frequently stated by cardiologists and internal medicine specialists.

This course aims to provide up-to-date knowledge and practical training in the field.
