MAIN OBJECTIVE

The objective of this symposium is to educate healthcare providers on gender-specific approaches in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of women with a broad range of cardiovascular diseases.

OVERALL OBJECTIVES

2. Educate the practitioner on cardiovascular disease risk factors and diseases more common in women that are often overlooked.

NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women in the US and accounts for more deaths each year than all other causes combined. The rates of death are even higher in women of racial or ethnic minority. One in three women will die of some form of heart or vascular disease. However, only one-third of women are aware of this statistic and only half would call 911 if they had symptoms of a heart attack. Compared to men, women are less likely to receive standard of care of treatment for chest pain, less likely to be referred to a cardiologist, and less likely to be admitted to the hospital. It is our mission to reduce sex-based disparities and achieve equity in cardiovascular care by educating healthcare providers about the impact of cardiovascular disease on women and empowering them to be advocates for women’s cardiovascular health.

TARGET AUDIENCE

This program has been designed to provide primary care physicians, internists, cardiologists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare providers with the necessary information to increase knowledge and awareness of cardiovascular disease in women with the goal of improving patient care.
