Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in women who have been underdiagnosed, undertreated and under researched concerning prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiac conditions that predominantly affect them (1). Notably, declines in CVD death rates have stalled in mid-life women compared to men (1), suggesting sex-specific approaches may be needed. Ischemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA), may affect up to 62% of women undergoing coronary angiography for suspected angina, with a higher prevalence in mid-life women aged 45-65 years (2). The underlying pathophysiology includes coronary microvascular dysfunction, coronary endothelial dysfunction and/or epicardial vasospasm (2). Myocardial infarction (MI) with no obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA), defined as evidence of clinical MI and absence of obstructive CAD (< 50% lesion), accounts for 6% of MI (3) and is more frequently diagnosed in women. Common underlying causes of MINOCA include underlying plaque disruption, epicardial coronary vasospasm or occult microthrombi or spontaneous coronary artery dissection.(2) Although historically overlooked, both INOCA and MINOCA are associated with adverse outcomes (2), and recent literature has contributed to increasing recognition (4), consensus on nomenclature (5, 6), as well as potentially improving diagnostic work-up (2) and therapy (2). Given that women represent the majority of patients diagnosed with INOCA and MINOCA, clinical expertise in North America regarding diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of these clinical entities, has been centered in specialized Women’s Heart Centres (WHC), with the concept to improve patient outcomes, as well address knowledge gaps.
