Introduction
There is no better example of the disconnect
between what we know and what we do than in the
case of women with heart artery disease.
3
  • The specific research around the ways heart
    artery disease is different in women has been
    done. It is landmark research that has life or
    death implications. There are dozens of
    scientific articles that address this topic.

Differing Symptom Patterns
  • In all American medicine, there is no better
    example of the disconnect between what we know
    and what we do than in the case of women with
    heart artery disease. 

5
  • Coronary artery disease in women is different
    from coronary disease in men.  This illness in
    men produces local arterial blockages that cause
    chest pain with exercise that is relieved by
    rest. 

6
  • Our current medical system continues to
    operate under the fixed blockage model in
    coronary artery disease.  If a patient does not
    have a fixed blockage, they are told that the
    problem is not related to the heart.  What are
    the consequences of this diagnostic error?

Calculate Your Heart Attack Risk
  • If you are a woman aged 69 or older your risk of
    a heart attack is elevated, and you should take a
    statin even if your cholesterol is not elevated
    and you have no other risk factors.
