Ventripoint Announces Sponsorship of the 56th Annual Meeting of the Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology
Toronto, Ontario – The Newswire – April 25, 2023 - Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. ("Ventripoint" or the "Company"), (TSXV:VPT); (OTCQB:VPTDF) is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the 56th Annual Meeting of the Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology (AEPC) being held on April 26th-29th 2023 in Dublin, Ireland.
The AEPC is a network of specialists in the paediatric and congenital cardiology field who strive to promote the sharing of information and resources within the community. The AEPC is currently one of the largest global associations in the cardiac field with over 1,000 paediatric cardiologists. We are excited to be part of this highly specialized group of people to demonstrate how our products enhance cardiac care.
This year’s theme is “Building Bridges of Collaboration Across Europe In Congenital Cardiac Care”. Ventripoint is very much part of this collaboration and is sponsoring an Industrial Symposium with PD Dr. med. Kai Thorsten Laser speaking about “Multi-Modality Assessment of the RV in Paediatric Heart Disease”. In particular, he will speak about his use of the VMS+ and its importance in the management and care of patients. Dr. Laser is the Deputy Director and Senior Physician from the Department of Pediatric Cardiology and Congenital Heart Defects of Herz-und Diabeteszentrium North Rhine-Westfalia | HDZ. He is a leading cardiologist in the assessment of congenital heart disease using 2D/3D imaging. Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function is a challenge, especially in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Regular and accurate assessment of RV function is an integral part of diagnosing, planning treatment, and follow-up in such patients.
This year’s conference and symposium are particularly notable for Ventripoint as we have transformed VMS+ into a product that offers a valuable solution that can be applied for daily use by our customers. Further, we are exhibiting (Booth 4) and are using this opportunity to continue to maintain our efforts to connect with clinicians within the global congenital cardiology community and to grow our reach globally. Our focus for this year is on sales as we have transitioned to a commercial operating company of which Europe is a particularly key market for the Ventripoint VMS+ products. Our products facilitate a more efficient patient journey by providing information about the structure and function of the heart with an accuracy equivalent to cardiac MRI at the time of the patient’s first echo scan. This detailed information, very early on in the care journey, leads to improved quality of diagnosis, potentially shortening of the diagnosis time, and increasing efficacy of patient management and care.
