To improve women's health cardiologists and gynaecologists should work together on women's specific cardiovascular risk factor. METHODS: Our study evaluated a care pathway named "heart, arteries and women". One hundred and ninety-one women were included for vascular (n=55) or hypertensive (n=136) explorations from January the first to December the 31st of 2013. We studied their clinical presentation and medical management. RESULTS: All women were at high cardiovascular risk (38% of them at very high risk). The average age was 52 years old. A woman on three had experienced high blood pressure or diabetes during pregnancy. One on two was postmenopausal woman. We stopped twelve estrogen-progesterone contraceptions; 60% didn't have gynaecological follow-up; 146 had high blood pressures (73% at night, 50% had no dipping blood pressure profile and 15 were newly diagnosed for hypertension). Sleep apnoea syndrome was suspected in half women. Medical therapies were optimized especially for women with atheroma in which 30 to 46% were properly treated (P=0.0005). Only 18% of the gynecologists received conclusive reports. CONCLUSIONS: At one year, our care pathway "heart, arteries and women" allowed to optimize medical therapy and clinical management. Everyone should be aware of this program.Show less >
