Translational Medicine Academy (TMA) in partnership with Radcliffe Cardiology were delighted to announce the return of e-SPACE Heart Failure 2023.
A thoughtfully curated programme supported the exploration of how leading experts are implementing the new heart failure guidelines into clinical practice and showed the latest information on patient profiling in heart failure for tailoring medical therapy.
This event once again brought together TMA’s mandate for the delivery of continuing professional development to healthcare professionals to achieve concordance with appropriate treatment plans, with Radcliffe Cardiology’s goal to deliver cardiovascular knowledge to best support cardiovascular communities transform theory into practice.
Learning Objectives
- Review the burden of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) as one of the leading causes of disability and mortality worldwide
- Understand the latest guideline recommendations and discuss their applicability according to patients phenotypes
- Discuss the implementation in clinical practice of the four foundational therapies and additional drugs and devices to improve patient outcomes
- Develop a comprehensive understanding of best practices for the screening, diagnosis and management of the patient with heart failure and comorbidities
- Translate the findings of recent studies and guidelines into optimal patient management
Target Audience
- Heart Failure Specialists
- General Cardiologists
- General Practitioners (GPs)
- Nurses, Pharmacists, and other Allied Healthcare Professionals

Faculty Biographies
Cecilia Bahit
Chief of Cardiology
Dr Cecilia Bahit is Chief of Cardiology at INECO Neurociencias Oroño, Santa Fe, AR. She is also currently serving as Co-Chair for the World Stroke Organization Heart & Brain Task Force.
Horst Sievert
Director
From 1973 to 1979, Sievert studied human medicine at the universities of Mainz and Frankfurt. In 1979 he passed the medical state examination top of his class and received his licence to practise. In 1980 he completed his doctorate (Dr. med.) in angiology, awarded magna cum laude.
He then underwent postgraduate training in internal medicine, nephrology, and intensive care medicine at the city hospital in Offenbach. In 1987 he was certified in internal medicine, and in 1988 he gained the cardiology subspecialty designation at University Hospital Frankfurt. He further acquired subspecialties in angiology (1996) and intensive-care medicine (1997). In 1990 he completed his habilitation in interventional cardiology.
Career Overview
In 1990, Horst Sievert became Chief Physician of Cardiology at the Heart and Circulation Center in Rotenburg, where he established and led one of Germany’s largest interventional-cardiology departments until 1993. He then…
Klaus Witte
Klaus Witte is a Cardiologist at the Leeds Institute of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Medicine, Leeds, UK, where his research group focuses on patient-orientated questions with a commitment to enhancing efficacy through the personalised application of new and existing therapies in chronic heart failure (CHF).
Challenging conventional teaching around heart rate and exercise capacity in CHF, Dr Witte’s group has developed a reliable method to map the force-frequency relationship in CHF. Through this approach, they have demonstrated improvements in exercise capacity in patients with CHF and pacemakers (JACC-HF 2018, Circulation 2020). His earlier work also questioned established doctrines in this field (JACC 2016).
Looking ahead, Dr Witte is keen to address pressing challenges, including the escalating issue of health economics across Europe, the adaptation of care pathways, and the need to convey the increasingly complex molecular basis of clinical syndromes to…
Paul Sorajja
Interventional Cardiologist
Dr Paul Sorajja is an Interventional Cardiologist at the Banner Health in Phoenix, Arizona.
Dr Sorajja's clinical practice specialises in interventional cardiology, with a focus on catheter-based therapy of valvular and structural heart disease. He was part of the team that performed the first transcatheter mitral valve replacement in the US for a patient with native mitral regurgitation in 2015, and has the highest worldwide experience with TMVR.
Dr Sorajja has published over 300 manuscripts and book chapters, with expertise in cardiac hemodynamics, clinical education, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and percutaneous therapy of structural heart disease.
