Part of the national cardiovascular Open Week
The Ariano Irpino event forms part of the (H) Open Week on cardiovascular diseases promoted by Fondazione Onda ETS and the Bollino Rosa network, in which ASL Avellino is participating.
The 2026 national initiative runs from 28 September to 4 October and focuses particularly on cardiomyopathies. It coincides with World Heart Day on 29 September.
According to Fondazione Onda, participating Bollino Rosa hospitals during the week will offer free specialist visits, diagnostic tests, expert consultations, information events and educational material focused on cardiovascular disease and cardiomyopathies.
Prevention and early diagnosis
The stated goals of the initiative are cardiovascular prevention, improved access to early diagnosis and greater awareness of cardiovascular risk among women.
For readers in the Avellino area, the practical point is timing: the Ariano Irpino session opens the national week on Monday morning, while other participating hospitals hold their own scheduled activities through 4 October. Anyone interested in the Ariano Irpino morning session should book directly through the contacts listed above, as places are limited.
