    Women and aortic stenosis , evidence practice review of the SMART trial results .
    Jan 29 2025
    The podcast episode focuses on the underdiagnosis and undertreatment of aortic stenosis in women despite their equal prevalence compared to men. Dr. Martha Gulati and Dr. Roxana Marin discuss disparities in diagnosis and treatment, emphasizing that women often face longer wait times for proper intervention. They highlight the need for increased awareness, better diagnostic approaches, and improved education among healthcare providers to address these issues.

    The discussion then shifts to the SMART trial, which studied treatment outcomes for women with aortic stenosis, particularly those with smaller aortic annuli. The conversation concludes with recommendations for patient management post-TAVR, emphasizing the importance of rehabilitation, long-term monitoring, and appropriate anticoagulation strategies. The speakers stressed the need to rethink medical terminology, improve patient education, and advocate for continued research on sex-specific cardiovascular treatments. The SMART trial is a model for future studies to ensure women receive equitable and effective heart care.
