Global heart attack definition updated to improve diagnosis for women

Australian cardiac experts welcome updated definition

2 Sep 16 · 8d ago · 3 articles · 1 post · 3 sources · development 2 of 2

Australian cardiologists and the Heart Foundation endorsed the new definition, noting it will improve diagnosis of women experiencing heart attacks and lead to better outcomes. Experts highlighted that sex-specific troponin ranges and inclusion of SCAD and other coronary events common in women were key improvements.

“That's a great thing because that means when a woman comes to the emergency room, presenting with heart attack symptoms, clinicians can consider less common coronary events such as SCAD.”
