Zadnji dvobroj časopisa Cardiologia Croatica u 2024. godini izašao je na 316 stranica. Donosimo proširene kongresne sažetke 15. kongresa Hrvatskoga kardiološkog društva i 11. kongresa Hrvatske udruge kardioloških medicinskih sestara. Oba kongresa se održavaju od 28. studenoga do 1. prosinca 2024. godine u Zagrebu.

Pozivamo članove Hrvatskog kardiološkog društva da ažuriraju svoje podatke za pretplatu na časopis – molimo poslati aktualnu poštansku adresu na adresu elektroničke pošte kardio[at]kardio.hr na koju zaprimamo i buduće članke.
