Addressing the opening session, Vice Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Anh Thi described the congress not only as a major scientific event hosted by Da Nang, but also as a valuable opportunity for the city’s healthcare sector to enhance professional capacity.

She said the event provides doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers in Da Nang with opportunities to update their knowledge, exchange experience and connect with leading Vietnamese and international experts. These interactions can help bring new medical knowledge and technologies into patient care.

Da Nang is committed to encouraging lifelong learning, scientific research, innovation, and domestic and international cooperation among healthcare professionals, while supporting the development of advanced medical techniques.

Ultimately, every medical advance should serve a common goal: enabling people to prevent disease more effectively, detect health problems earlier, receive more effective treatment and enjoy a better quality of life.

As part of the congress, a dedicated session on chronic coronary syndrome examines how the latest recommendations can be applied in real-world clinical settings, from patient assessment and diagnosis to treatment strategies and long-term follow-up.

Experts are also discussing practical challenges arising in clinical care and sharing experience in addressing complex cases, helping bridge the gap between updated clinical recommendations and their application in everyday medical practice.
