Croatia: Where global experts unite
Dear colleagues and friends,
It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in
The 11th International Conference on Prehypertension, Hypertension Metabolic Disorders &
Cardiovascular Disease,
which will take place in
Split, Croatia,
November 7 -9, 2025
Cardiovascular as well as chronic kidney disease are major health burden worldwide. CV risk factors tend
to appear in clusters and their specific risk is far beyond their additive effect. However, the impact of
borderline conditions of these traditional, but also non-traditional risk factors is less clear and needs
further research, specific evaluation, and treatment guidelines.
Early diagnosis of end organ damage is crucial in order to prevent it’’s progression and aim to regress
organ damage that has already developed.
Despite having many options for hypertension and cardiometabolic syndrome treatment, control is
achieved in a minority of patients. Adherence, not only to drug therapy but also to lifestyle change is
poor and this is the main reason of the global failure in prevention of end organ damage.
In this conference we are going to discuss all aspects of hypertension and other CV risk factors, starting
from prehypertension and other early metabolic derangements because early diagnosis and intervention
is crucial. New diagnostic procedures will also be elaborated.
Importance of lifestyle change, proper blood pressure measurements with the focus on newly
developed methods will be part of our conference.
As we are at the new dawn of drug and intervention therapy for patients with hypertension,
cardiovascular risk factors and especially the cardiometabolic syndrome, as well as for kidney patients
and those with heart failure, important sessions will focus on these new aspects.
Nurses, pharmacists, social workers, dieticians, and other allied professions are essential and should
participate in this fight for wellness in healthy and populations at risk. All these together with the
physicians should cooperate for maximal success in fighting the development of disease.
New technologies, both diagnostic and therapeutic, like Digital technology are essential for
diagnosis and optimal treatment and those will be discussed thoroughly.
As we did during last conferences, this year we will organize several “hands-on” workshops, in
which experts will guide younger colleagues on many important practical aspects of end organ
evaluation.
„Meet the expert” sessions were very well attended last year and during all coffee breaks burning
items of cardiorenal and metabolic continuum will be discussed.
The purpose of our meeting is to discuss in depth new mechanisms of cardiovascular and renal
damage, novel methods of diagnosis, leading to new therapeutic approaches.
We cordially invite you to this conference with distinguished speakers coming from all continents
(apart Antarctica).
You will enjoy with us the beauty of hypertension and cardiometabolic disase, but also, friendship
and our common commitment to improve lives of our patients.
