ERN GUARD-Heart Contributes to EU Call for
Evidence on Cardiovascular Health Checks
ERN GUARD-Heart has successfully contributed to the
European Commission’s Call for Evidence on
cardiovascular health checks with the submission of a
coalition document titled:
“Strengthening EU cardiovascular health checks: Integrating inherited, congenital and
sudden-death-related cardiovascular risk.”
The document was submitted on behalf of the European Coalition for Inherited,
Congenital and Sudden-Death-Related Cardiovascular Disease Prevention, with the
support of numerous organisations, patient representatives, and experts across Europe.
This joint effort re ects the strong commitment of the ERN GUARD-Heart community
and its partners to improving cardiovascular prevention strategies at EU level, with
particular attention to genetic and rare cardiac conditions.
We would like to warmly thank all contributors for their rapid input, collaboration,
and trust. This achievement highlights the strength of our network when clinicians,
researchers, patients, and advocates unite around a shared public health goal.
