The study, published in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology on Sept. 6, followed 154 women with nonobstructive coronary artery disease who were patients at a women’s heart center over the course of a year. Surveys collected data about their chest pain, quality of life, depression and anxiety symptoms and cardiovascular outcomes. These results were compared with a baseline.
Patients who went to a multidisciplinary women’s heart center saw as much as a 17 percent increase in new or changed diagnosis for chest pain. At one year, these patients had significantly decreased chest pain and increased mental health and quality of life.
