Although men and women share many of the same major risk factors for
development of coronary artery disease, the similarities stop there. The
knowledgeable underwriter will recognize many of the risk factors, signs,
and symptoms of CAD in women that would never raise a question in a
man's application or testing. This presentation will highlight the differences
in risk factors, clinical presentation, and mortality implication of coronary
artery disease in women versus men. The information presented is medical
evidence-based and referenced for those desiring more information
or review.
