Study summary

The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) is dedicated to promoting cardiovascular (CV) health and minimizing the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases throughout Europe. As a founding member of the European Alliance for Cardiovascular Health (EACH), the ESC is advocating for European and National Cardiovascular Health Plans which would include a cardiovascular and diabetes health check as part of a screening process for citizens.

In line with this call for public health diagnosis of CV health, the ESC is committed to raising awareness on the need for actions and proposes to offer complimentary tests to delegates at ESC Congress 2026 from 28-31 August 2026 in Munich, Germany.

The primary objective of the study is to screen the CV risk among the ESC Annual Congress 2026 attendees with a focus on healthcare professionals (HCP) and to stratify by primary or secondary prevention.

Inclusion criteria

  • All attendees including healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, etc.) attending the ESC Congress 2026 from 28 to 31 August 2026
  • Subjects who declare that they are able to understand and give in English
  • Adult subjects (≥ 18 years of age)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects not willing to provide his/her consent to participate in the study.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Second Manifestations or Arterial Disease (SMART) risk score in patients with established cardiovascular diseases (CVD) at baseline

    Time frame: Baseline

  2. Systemic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2 (SCORE2) score in patients without established CVD at baseline

    Time frame: Baseline

  3. Level of agreement between self-perceived cardiovascular risk category and objectively assessed cardiovascular risk category based on the SCORE2 or SMART algorithm

    Time frame: Baseline

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 21, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
