On 04.09.2025, a press conference was held at the General Hospital “Đorđe Joanović” Zrenjanin to present the results of the cross-border project “Harmonization of Cardiovascular Diseases Management from Prevention to Heart Transplantation in the Cross-Border Area – SIPHEALTH” (RORS00008).

During the event, the public and media representatives were presented with two newly established cardiology clinics, equipped with modern medical devices: a high-resolution treadmill for ergometric testing, a biphasic defibrillator with four operating modes, an automatic CPR machine, a Holter ECG and 24-hour blood pressure monitoring device, as well as an ultrasound machine for cardiology and vascular examinations with two probes.

These clinics will enable faster, more accurate, and more efficient diagnostics and treatment of patients, significantly improving the quality of healthcare in the Central Banat District.

In the upcoming period, in the settlements of the City of Zrenjanin, the project team together with the hospital’s medical staff will organize educational days for the local population. The goal of these activities is to raise awareness about the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, promote healthy lifestyles, and provide practical advice on how to reduce the risk of heart disease. These events represent an important segment of the project as they ensure direct communication with citizens and strengthen the role of preventive medicine.
