Heart Failure Fellowship Australia

Our Clinical Cardiac Heart Failure Fellowship will develop clinical, research, and educational leaders in the field of Heart Failure.

Heart Failure Fellowships at Flinders Medical Centre – South Australia 5000

Our Heart failure unit is staffed by four advanced heart failure physicians and specialist nurses trained in transplant, pulmonary hypertension and advanced heart failure medicine. The Cardiology department has a successful research division with multiple Heart failure research projects comprising both sponsored multi-centre major endpoint clinical trials and local investigator-initiated research.

Flinders Medical Centre has close ties to the transplant centres in Alfred Hospital, Melbourne and St. Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney.

The Cardiology Department consists of 18 Staff Specialists and caters for all cardiology subspecialities. All of our consultants have focused single subspeciality interests in addition to their general cardiology commitments. We have dedicated Imaging, Intervention, EP and Heart Failure units that are closely aligned under the departmental umbrella and we have a close collegiate relationship with our cardiac surgeons. Flinders Cardiac Services have always been at the forefront of cardiac innovation and research founded on our international reputation in Clinical Trials Research.

Heart Failure Fellowship Aims

The Flinders echo fellowship is an opportunity for cardiology trainees to develop their skills in all aspects of Heart Failure.

Lastly, there is an interventional aspect to the training with the Heart failure fellow performing right heart catheterisation and endomyocardial biopsy in a weekly laboratory session.
