Introduction to the Liverpool ICC Study Day:
Inherited Cardiovascular Conditions (ICC) are a group of genetic disorders that
primarily affect the heart. They are often complex conditions to manage and
sometimes the first indication of disease can be the sudden, unexplained death of
an apparently healthy young person. Developments in ICC are allowing those
involved in their care to offer more accurate diagnosis and improved clinical
management, including better risk assessment for families of those affected.
There has been great focus on this group of conditions in the last five years, since
the 2009 Foundation for Genomics and Population Health (PHG) document ‘Heart
to Heart: Services for Inherited Cardiovascular Conditions’ was published. It is no
longer acceptable for someone at risk of an ICC not to receive timely and expert
attention.
The Liverpool ICC study day aims to provide clinical updates in some of the major
components of Inherited Cardiovascular Conditions. We hope to provide an insight
in to the world of clinical genetics for cardiologists, and an understanding of the
multi-faceted care of ICC patients in a specialist cardiology centre. We have
brought together an excellent faculty of expert speakers and have an agenda
designed to educate and entertain.
The course is aimed at cardiologists and geneticists of all grades, specialist nurses,
genetic counsellors and cardiac physiologists. We hope you can join us.
