PRISM-PCI Conclave Highlights India's Role in Heart Care Evolution
The PRISM-PCI Conclave 2026 was a big meeting in India about heart care.
It brought together doctors from all over the world to talk about how treating heart diseases has changed over the years.
They discussed new technologies and methods that make heart treatments safer and more precise.
India has become very important in this field, not just by using new technologies but also by creating them.
The meeting also talked about how to prevent heart diseases, especially in younger people.
Overall, it showed that India is playing a big role in shaping the future of heart care globally.
The PRISM-PCI Conclave 2026, hosted by Meril Life Sciences in Vapi, India, focused on the evolution of heart care and India's role in cardiac innovation.
Nearly 300 interventional cardiologists from India and abroad attended the event to discuss advancements in angioplasty and precision-driven interventions.
India has transitioned from being a consumer of global innovation to a contributor, developing advanced cardiac technologies like coronary stents and imaging-guided solutions.
Experts emphasized the importance of precision in modern cardiac care, using imaging and physiology to guide decisions and improve patient outcomes.
The conclave highlighted the need for early detection, lifestyle modification, and public awareness to combat the rising burden of cardiovascular disease, especially in younger populations.

Quotes
Dr. Praveen Chandra
Chairman, Interventional Cardiology, Cardiac Care at Medanta - The Medicity
“We now have advanced cardiac interventions - including a range of valve repair and replacement options, where damaged heart valves are either repaired to restore proper function or replaced with artificial valves; minimally invasive small access surgery, which uses smaller incisions to reduce pain, scarring, and recovery time; robotic surgery, utilizing robotic assistance for enhanced precision and control during complex procedures; and interventions to manage uncontrolled blood pressure and cholesterol.”
