In August, leading cardiovascular groups released a new definition of heart attacks, reclassifying overlooked causes of heart attacks that are more common among women. Consultant urologist Dr George Lee is joined by consultant cardiologist Dr Effarezan Abdul Rahman to break down why these changes are seen as a move towards better care for women. This conversation also discusses how women tend to experience heart attacks differently from men, the unique risk factors they have, and why seeking early treatment is key to survival.
