Objective
Case based presentation
– Symptoms
– Diagnosis
– Risk stratification
The Scope of the Problem
Treating heart disease topped a list of the 10
most costly conditions for American women.
– This from a new study by AHRQ. The study, based on
medical care that was provided in 2008, says treating
women for heart disease cost nearly $44 billion.
The Scope of the Problem
In 2007, CVD still caused 1 death per minute
among women in the United States
Women and Heart Disease:
Keys to Improving Outcomes
Keys to reducing mortality from CHD:
Early recognition of symptoms
Accurate diagnosis of CAD
Treatment
Case Study
39-Year-Old African-American Woman
with Atypical Chest Pain
Case Study
39-year-old African-American woman with recent
onset of exertional jaw pain and heart burn
Height: 5’4”
Weight: 170 lb
Waist: 45”
Labs: fasting glucose: 135; TG: 200; TC: 260;
HDL: 45
BP: 165/92 mm Hg
Case Study
Discharged from ED after 10 hours with negative
cardiac enzymes and told to see a GI specialist
Admitted to hospital with continued episodes of
chest pain
Meds: none
Medical history:
– Mother: CAD at age 50, diabetes at age 35
– Father: died of MI at age 55
Was there an error made at the time of
the initial presentation?
At what time in the evaluation was it
made?
Are there gender differences in
presentation?
Clinical Presentation of AMI in Women
Compared to Men, Women Have:
– Women with AMI had lower odds and a lower rate of
presenting with chest pain than men
• risk ratio .93; 95% confidence interval, .91-.95
– Women were significantly more likely than men to
present with fatigue, neck pain, syncope, nausea,
right arm pain, dizziness, and jaw pain.
Heart Lung. 2011 Nov-Dec;40(6):477-91
Compared to Men, Women:
– Are Older with More Comorbidities (HTN, Diabetes,
CHF)
– Have Higher Rates of “Silent MI
– Have Smaller Cardiac Enzyme Elevations
Presentation
85-90% of Women with AMI present
with the complaint of chest pain
Presentation-ACS
Euro Heart Survey of ACS
– STEMI
• 85% vs 90% typical angina
– NSTEMI/UA
• 85% vs 87% typical angina
– No difference in outcomes

MONICA/KORA Myocardial Infarction Registry
– No significant gender differences were found in
chest pain, feelings of pressure or tightness,
diaphoresis, pain in the right shoulder/arm/hand,
and syncope.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Exercise ECG
Testing in Women
Altered prevalence of disease1,2
Reduced predictive accuracy in younger women2
Potential factors affecting diagnostic accuracy1:
– Hormonal influences
– Reduced functional capacity
– Resting ST-T wave abnormalities
– Comorbidities

Cardiac Catheterization
Summary
39 y/o African-American woman with recent
onset of exertional jaw pain and heart burn
Cardiac catheterization findings:
– Severe coronary artery disease (70% stenosis) in left
anterior descending artery and right coronary artery
– Moderate disease (65% stenosis) in left circumflex
artery
Ventricular function: ejection fraction of 55%
Management: Referral to coronary artery bypass
graft surgery
Are There Gender Differences in
Invasive Diagnostic Tests?
Can Cardiac Catheterization Identify
Coronary Artery Disease in Women?
Decisive Findings From the WISE Study
Approximately 50% of women referred for evaluation of
ischemia do not have obstructive coronary disease
– Prognosis for these women is intermediate for future
adverse cardiac events and persistent symptoms
Practitioners should no longer ignore nonobstructive
coronary angiograms in women
Practitioners should not call evidence of clear ischemia in
this setting, such as a positive troponin or an abnormal
stress perfusion test, a false positive

Physicians
Negative troponin may not mean no disease
No significant disease does not mean no disease
Use risk stratification to determine prognosis
Integrate preventive measures into observation
unit strategies
More research is needed
– How will the newer generation troponins change the
game
