Dr. Dang Thuc Anh Vu, Deputy Director of the Lam Dong Department of Health, said the program provides an opportunity for medical professionals to update their knowledge of arrhythmias, cardiovascular diseases and musculoskeletal disorders—groups of non-communicable diseases that are becoming increasingly prevalent alongside population aging.
The topics presented by experts from Cho Ray Hospital and Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy were drawn from clinical practice and updated in accordance with the latest recommendations from European and American professional associations. This provides doctors with additional information and practical experience to strengthen their professional expertise and improve the quality of treatment.
