Fairly-easy => A recent study shows that the impact of a heart attack in women aged 55 years or younger worse than men.
This research studied data from studies VIRGO (Variation in Recovery: Role of Gender on Outcomes of Young AMI Patients) and interviewed about 3,501 people, 67 percent are women in the United States and Spain in mid-2008 to 2012, which has a history of heart attack.
The results mentioned, a year after suffering a heart attack women more likely than men to experience some problems. The problem is, the physical and mental functioning weaker, decreased quality of life, more often experience pain in the chest, and poorer physical limitations.
"Previous research suggests young women have a greater burden of risk factors that have been there before," said study author Rachel P. Dreyer, Ph.D., as reported by the American Heart Association page.
"These factors have been shown to strongly correlated with adverse outcomes in women than in men," added assistant researcher of cardiovascular medicine at Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn. this.
Dreyer said, poorer health outcomes in women may be caused by a variety of matters relating to socio-demographic, clinical and biological, such as chest pain that is not detected, maintenance access problems and increased responsibilities of life that affect their health.
"Our results may be important in developing treatments specifically designed to enhance the recovery of a young woman after a heart attack," said Dreyer.
"We need to identify women who are at higher risk as well as think about their care," he added.
The results of this study are also presented in the American Heart Association's Quality of Care and Outcomes Research Scientific Sessions 2014.
