Ligue Cardiologique Belge / Belgische Cardiologische Liga

Free prevention accessible to all is at the heart of the League's mission. Free screening days, awareness campaigns, quarterly magazine, podcasts and webinars: all the tools are free and available to all Belgians, without exception. 🫀

Every minute counts during a cardiac arrest. That's why the Liga developed the Reanim app, which maps the nearest defibrillators and allows you to call emergency services in one click, and the Heart Knights campaign to honor those who dared to act and save a life. 1 minute saved means 10% more chance of survival. ❤️

Cardiovascular disease does not affect everyone in the same way. The League is specifically committed to women's hearts, whose symptoms are often unknown and underdiagnosed. An inclusive and differentiated approach, because every life counts !

The League is not only aimed at the general public. It also raises awareness among health professionals via an annual congress for general practitioners, nutrition seminars, prevention guidelines and an e-newsletter distributed to cardiologists, general practitioners and internists. An essential bridge between science and the field. 🩺

The League does not stop at prevention. It supports patients and their relatives after a heart problem via a telephone hotline, the popularisation of medical information and a network of Cardiac Patients' Clubsthroughout Belgium. 🤝
