Abstract

The 9th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Libyan Cardiac Society Congress (CARDIOLIBYA 2023) was held between December 29 and 31, 2023, in Tibesti Hotel in Benghazi, Libya. Abstracts were received in three categories: clinical vignette, research, and quality improvement. All abstracts underwent a peer-review process by the scientific committee and independent reviewers. A grading system was used based on the abstract’s quality, novelty, and clinical significance. Here, we present both the oral and poster abstracts as submitted by the authors after minimal restyling to suit publication purposes. They are published here for rapid communication and to benefit those who could not attend the congress physically.

Introduction

The 9th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Libyan Cardiac Society, known as CARDIOLIBYA 2023, was held between December 29 and 31, 2023, in Tibesti Hotel in Benghazi, Libya. A total of 54 abstracts were received in three categories: clinical vignette, research, and quality improvement. Most abstracts were clinical vignettes. All abstracts underwent a peer-review process by the scientific committee and independent reviewers. A grading system was used based on the abstract’s quality, novelty, and clinical significance. Each abstract was evaluated and scored by two reviewers. Out of the 54 abstracts, 40 were accepted. The main reasons for rejections were as follows: poor quality, unrelated to cardiology, and duplicate publication.

Here, we present both the oral and poster abstracts of the 9th LCS Congress as submitted by the authors.
