The Number One Killer of Women

RDH e-vent is a free event sponsored by RDH Magazine. The past session are archived and available on demand, and qualify for CE credit. The Keynote Session from the RDH e-vent Oct 2009:

The Number One Killer of Women: Heart Disease
Barbara Steinberg, DDS

It is now recognized that symptoms of heart disease in women may be different than those experienced by men. All too often, women ignore these symptoms. This discussion will lend itself to the recognition of these symptoms, risk factors, as well as preventive and treatment modalities for heart disease in women. Tips for maintaining good heart health over the course of a lifetime will be presented.

The course participants at the conclusion of the course will be able to:

1. Recognize symptoms of heart disease in women
2. Identify risk factors for heart disease
3. Become knowledgeable of preventive and treatment modalities for heart disease
4. Identify disparities between men and women when it comes to heart disease and its treatment
