Heart Failure: a global challenge demanding specialised expertise
In 2014, the Department of Cardiology, in collaboration with the Heart Failure Association and the European Heart Academy of the European Society of Cardiology, launched the PCHF-Zurich, the premier course in Heart Failure offering an in-depth two-year specialisation programme.
PCHF-Zurich features 160 hours of interactive learning: keynote lectures on latest in heart failure, case seminars, clinical rounds, live transmissions, as well as hands-on training and virtual reality training session, in addition to 140 hours of self-studying.
PCHF-Zurich culminates in a Certificate of Advanced Studies in Heart Failure from the University of Zurich — CAS UZH in Heart Failure.
