SHAKE, an acronym for Saving Heart Attacks – Key Efforts, has become a pivotal platform over the years, and this year's conference was no exception. Focused on cutting-edge treatment protocols, the event showcased the latest innovations in cardiology, while emphasising the importance of early diagnosis and timely interventions to save lives. Addressing delegates virtually, Dr Azad Moopen, MD, FRCP, founder-chairman of Aster DM Healthcare Group and a patron of the initiative, underscored the relevance of this year's theme. "Early detection and timely treatment of heart attacks are critical in saving lives. This conference continues to play a vital role in creating awareness and driving change," he said, while lauding Dr Brajesh Mittal and his team for their unwavering dedication. Dr Mittal, a prominent Dubai-based interventional cardiologist and the visionary force behind SHAKE HEART for the past nine years, has continuously spearheaded this initiative to unite international experts and present groundbreaking research in the field of coronary artery disease. As session director for the morning session on coronary artery disease, Dr. Mittal stated, "Acute heart attacks, or STEMI, can affect individuals across all age groups. But with timely detection and the right intervention, countless lives can be saved." The CME-accredited one-day event featured 25 insightful presentations by leading global cardiology experts.

The session also explored the role of Semaglutide in diabetes management and its cardiovascular implications. Beyond academic excellence, the event served as a vital forum for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and fostering new intervention strategies among the medical community. As cardiovascular disease continues to impact populations globally – with a notable rise in young adults – the SHAKE HEART Annual Conference remains a beacon of progress, offering actionable insights and uniting the world's top cardiac minds to collectively confront the challenges ahead.
