Future directions
Despite a growing body of evidence supporting early catheter ablation
for treatment of AF, gender disparities in AF care persist. To address
gender disparities and improve the care of women with AF, several
campaigns have been launched to raise awareness and educate both the
general public and healthcare providers alike about gender equity in
cardiac care. These include the AHA – Go Red for Women and other
similar campaigns. Continued efforts to educate healthcare providers and
the general public about the need for gender-specific treatment are
essential to ensure that women with AF receive the care they need to
manage this condition effectively.
