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.
