Surveys show that 8.6 million women suffer from cardiovascular disease out of 16.5 million deaths worldwide each year, a figure twice as high as the number of women dying from cancers such as cervical and breast cancer. Fifty-five percent of European women die from cardiovascular disease, significantly higher than men (43%). Cardiovascular disease has become the leading cause of death for women in Europe, surpassing the total number of cancer deaths. In September 2005, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), the world’s largest academic cardiology event, had as its theme: Women’s Heart Health. It is evident that cardiovascular disease in women will soon become one of the topics in the cardiovascular field in Asia, especially in China. Cardiovascular disease is a greater threat to women’s health than men’s, so women should be more concerned about heart health! TCT 2009 (Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapy Annual Meeting 2009) was held in san francisco, USA on September 22nd, 2009. “Women in Innovation is an organization dedicated to the current gender “bias” in coronary heart disease and interventional care, i.e., most clinical trials focus on male coronary heart disease and interventional outcomes, with only 27% of female patients enrolled, misdiagnosis, under-diagnosis and under-treatment of female coronary heart disease, and female cardiologists. The organization is working to change some of the current misconceptions about the treatment of women with coronary artery disease and to provide continuing education to more female cardiovascular physicians and to focus on the proportion of female patients in current studies. During the meeting, an expert presented ongoing research, and one of the most intriguing aspects of the backgrounder was that women far underestimate the risk of coronary heart disease: half of women did not know about cardiovascular disease in the past year, 23.7% received information from television, and only 3.2% consulted a physician. 73% of women did not ask their physician about cardiovascular disease precautions in the past year, and did not consult a cardiovascular Signs and symptoms of cardiovascular disease …… This shows that there is a significant “gap” in the knowledge of cardiovascular disease in women. The study also shows that many female cardiovascular interventionalists are more concerned about post-operative antithrombotic therapy in female patients and about bleeding complications during antithrombotic therapy in female patients. The study is currently collecting cases, and we look forward to the results of this study, which will give cardiovascular physicians more clinical information about female patients, and also look forward to cardiovascular physicians working together to focus on women’s health and build a defense for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease in women.
