Estimados amigos: Estas palabras de bienvenida están dirigidas a todos los presentes en el XIII Congreso SOLACI´07 y el XVII Congreso CACI´07. Otra vez en Argentina, otra vez en Buenos Aires, con las mismas ganas de que este evento sea de utilidad y grato para todos, sabiendo de ante mano que Latinoamérica es así, con todos sus encantos, toda su espontaneidad, toda su juventud y algunos pequeños errores que seguramente vamos a cometer; ustedes nos disculparán y nosotros trataremos de disimularlos. La alegría de tenerlos aquí es superadora de todo el trabajo y esfuerzo que desde comienzos de 2006 venimos realizando un grupo de profesionales médicos y no médicos con reuniones semanales, actividad diaria y con la pasión necesaria para que un Congreso de este volumen y nivel de participantes pueda ser realizado a la altura que todos merecen. El programa científico fue basado en la problemática internacional, pero con los matices necesarios para que la concurrencia latinoamericana se vea representada en su práctica intervencionista diaria, que es la esencia de la realización de este evento, precisamente aquí en Latinoamérica. El enfoque de la clínica cardiovascular, incluyendo la diabetología, gerontología, pediatría, infectología, sin excluir los avances de la cirugía vascular y cardíaca, son motivo de encuentros conjuntos con expertos, que serán desarrollados durante los tres días del Congreso, dando una visión unicista del paciente. Uno de los atractivos del programa de los eventos intervencionistas en todo el mundo es justamente mostrar cómo realizan la práctica los expertos internacionales y locales. En esa línea, SOLACI/CACI da un protagonismo destacado a la discusión de los “casos en vivo”. Nuevamente los enfermeros y tecnólogos en cardiología participan en este evento con sus importantes aportes e inquietudes. Reciban mi agradecimiento los invitados y conferencistas internacionales que, recorriendo a veces largas distancias, se acercan a nuestro país para compartir con nosotros sus experiencias enriquecedoras; a los integrantes del Comité Organizador y Científico; a todo el staff del Congreso, extensivo a los miembros de las Comisiones Directivas de CACI y SOLACI, que han sabido ayudarnos cuando fueron requeridos. Un especial agradecimiento a la industria relacionada al intervencionismo y a la industria farmacéutica por su apoyo y visión respecto de la práctica en América Latina. Este evento nos proporciona una oportunidad única para confraternizar e intercambiar experiencias en nuestra extensa región latinoamericana y con los invitados y participantes del resto del mundo, y así sentirnos gratamente incluidos en el universo del intervencionismo. Nuestro deseo es que disfruten de la calidez argentina, de la cual esperamos darles una pequeña muestra en los eventos sociales. Nuevamente, ¡BIENVENIDOS A ARGENTINA!

Dra. Liliana Grinfeld Presidente XIII SOLACI’07 XVII CACI’07 |3|

Dear friends, These welcome words are intended for all the attendants of the XIII SOLACI Congress '07 and the XVII CACI Congress '07. Once again in Argentina, once again in Buenos Aires, we are keen on making this event useful and pleasant for everybody, knowing in advance that Latin America is special, with its charm, spontaneity and youthness, and even some mistakes we will make; you will understand and we will try to disguise them. The joy of having you here overwhelms all the hard work and effort a team of medical and non-medical professionals has been doing since 2006, with weekly meetings and daily activities, with the passion that a Congress of this extent needs to be held as we all deserve. The Scientific Program is based on international issues including the necessary nuances so that Latin American attendees feel highly represented in their daily interventional practice, which is the aim of this event. The approach of cardiovascular practice including diabetology, gerontology, pediatrics and infectology, without leaving aside the advances in vascular and cardiac surgery, is the essence of the joint meetings with experts that will take place during this 3-day event, thus providing us with a comprehensive vision of the patient. One of the most attractive issues in the program of interventional events worldwide is how international and local experts perform their practice. In this regard, SOLACI/CACI emphasizes the discussion of Live Cases. Once again, Nurses and Technicians in Cardiology will take part in this event with their contributions and concerns. I would like to thank particularly our international speakers and guests for coming from distant places to share with us their enriching experiences; the members of the Organizing and Scientific Committees and all the SOLACI '07 staff, as well as the SOLACI/CACI Boards that have helped us every time we required. A special thanks to the industry related to interventional cardiology and pharmaceutical companies for their support and vision regarding the practice in Latin America. This event provides a unique opportunity to get closer and share experiences in the wide Latin American region with invited guests and participants from all around the world and thus allowing everybody to be part of the interventional universe. We deeply wish you enjoy the Argentine warmth that will be partly reflected in our social activities. Once again, WELCOME TO ARGENTINA! Liliana Grinfeld, M.D. President XIII SOLACI’07 Congress XVII CACI’07 Congress
