Women with cardiovascular 🫀🧠 disease are underdiagnosed, undertreated, under researched, and

There are so many other gaps and opportunities to improve women’s health. Thanks @cbc-news.ca !

SCAD is likely caused by intramural bleeding, with these patients more likely to have worse CV outcomes when they’re prescribed more potent antiplatelet therapies and oral anticoagulants, according to new observational data. #CardioSky

Exercise is OK, even recommended, after SCAD. But they should avoid straining and prolonged valsalva.

Precise evaluation of coronary tortuosity is vital in understanding heart conditions in women, such as #SCAD. See our recommendation for an accurate 3D assessment here https://buff.ly/3YOAEZv #HeartHealth #CardiovascularHealth in collaboration with the @VictorChangInst

In patients with recurrent SCAD, 75%-90% of those events involved coronary segments were not affected at the time of the initial presentation.
This would suggest that the risk for SCAD involves the entire epicardial coronary artery circulation and is not limited to isolated segments.
