Recognizing and understanding the sex and gender constructs, barriers, facilitators, and factors th...

In recent years, public awareness campaigns have targeted knowledge gaps and inequities in care while focusing on the unique female experience and heightened cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk profile. Recognizing and understanding the sex and gender constructs, barriers, facilitators, and factors that affect access, treatment, and recovery after an acute cardiac event from the unique patient perspective is a key step in transforming clinical practice and care patterns. The aim of this atlas chapter is to provide a knowledge review and to identify gaps regarding the experience of living with CVD from the perspective of the female survivor. The sections are as follows: (1) experiencing and living with CVD as a woman; (2) “stopped at the gate”: barriers to accessing acute cardiovascular care; and (3) action items to “open the gate” to women: what our patients want and need. The final section culminates with targeted recommendations stemming from recent literature and most importantly, from women with the lived experience of CVD.
