Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in women, yet studies have suggested that it is often under-recognized. Of particular concern is the apparent suboptimal treatment of women in comparison to men, with less revascularization and use of evidence-based medications. The Women in Innovations group of cardiologists aims to highlight these issues and change perceptions to optimize the treatment of female patients with CVD, to support future research, and to encourage and guide the training of female interventional cardiologists.
心血管疾病（CVD）是女性死亡的主要原因，但研究表明，这种疾病常常未被充分认识。特别令人关注的是，与男性相比，女性的治疗效果似乎并不理想，血管重建和使用基于证据的药物治疗的比例较低。心血管病学家创新女性小组旨在强调这些问题，并改变观念，以优化 CVD 女性患者的治疗，支持未来的研究，并鼓励和指导女性介入心脏病学家的培训。
