Women and Angina

By Barbara Phillips, NP Leave a Comment

Women with chest pains may be dying of heart disease unnecessarily because doctors under-estimate the severity of their condition, research suggests. A team from University College London found that angina – often the first sign of heart disease – affected women at the same rate as men.

However, women with suspected angina were less likely to be offered confirmatory diagnostic tests.

The study appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
