Interpretation of the Clinical Statement for Management of Female Cardiac Emergencies in 2024

Cardiac emergencies occur rapidly and pose a serious threat to the health and lives of patients. Female cardiac emergencies have been under-researched, under-diagnosed and under-treated due to gender bias and atypical symptoms for a long time. There are clear gender differences in the pathophysiological mechanisms, risk factors, management and outcomes of female cardiac emergencies. In China, the prevalence of female cardiac emergencies is notably high, and research on it has commenced relatively late. There is no authoritative guideline for female cardiac emergencies, so it is urgent to enhance the management strategies for these conditions. To standardize the management of cardiac emergencies in women and enhance health outcomes, clinicians from general medicine, cardiology and emergency medicine were convened to interpret the clinical statement titled Management of Female Cardiac Emergencies published in 2024 by the Association for Acute Cardiovascular Care and other organizations.
