The Middle East CardioVascular Congress was held for the first time under the initiative of Dr. Mohammad Javad Zibainejad in Dubai in 2007 under the name Iran-Arab Heart Congress. Iranian Hospital in Dubai hosted the first and second sessions of this congress. From the third year onwards, in order to expand the field of activity, it continued its activities by changing its name to the The Middle East CardioVascular Congress.

This congress has been held regularly every year in one of the cities of Dubai, Kish and Istanbul. Most of the participants of this congress are doctors specializing in cardiology and related specialties from Iran and Middle East countries. After the spread of the corona disease, this congress will be held online since last year.
