Complete guideFull MedicMess editorial briefing

This HCA UK symposium is aimed at clinicians who want practical updates in cardiovascular medicine and referral pathways. The format combines consultant-led presentations, case-based discussion and multidisciplinary perspectives across diagnosis, treatment and integrated care.

The visible agenda begins with new and practical approaches to heart-failure management and continues with additional specialist sessions that were still marked tentative. The event does not advertise an abstract route, and no CPD accreditation statement was visible on the public page.

The meeting runs from 09:00 to 15:30 at the Royal College of General Practitioners in London, with registration and breakfast from 08:30. Attendance is free and the public listing closes registration at midday on 25 September.

The agenda visible at review time began with a chaired heart-failure block and listed the remainder as subject to change. This draft therefore records the confirmed theme without inventing the unpublished later timetable.
