Think Tank Proceedings

Each year at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) Annual Scientific Sessions meeting, collaborative think tanks involving interventional cardiologists, administrative partners, and members of industry are convened for each SCAI clinical practice area to discuss topics of interest to the group.

This document presents the proceedings of the SCAI 2022 Structural Think Tank session, which focused on disparities in care. The aim of this discussion was to identify and and gain consensus on how health care disparities in the utilization of advanced structural heart therapies can be addressed.
