“…Of note, we found discrepant results regarding the association between CR participation and a history of either percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass graft, with 2 studies 40, 43 reporting lower rates of CR participation in these groups and another study suggesting the opposite. 53 A similar discrepancy was noted with a history of depression, with one study 51 reporting that depression was associated with lower rates of CR completion, whereas another study showed no significant association between depression and CR participation, for men or for women.…”

Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) services improve various clinical outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease, but such services are underutilized, particularly in women. The aim of this study was to identify evidence-based barriers and solutions for CR participation in women. A literature search was carried out using PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, OVID/Medline, and CINAHL to identify studies that have assessed barriers and/or solutions to CR participation. Titles and abstracts were screened, and then the full-text of articles that met study criteria were reviewed. We identified 24 studies that studied barriers to CR participation in women and 31 studies that assessed the impact of various interventions to improve CR referral, enrollment, and/or completion of CR in women. Patient-level barriers included lower education level, multiple comorbid conditions, non-English native language, lack of social support, and high burden of family responsibilities. We found support for the use of automatic referral and assisted enrollment to improve CR participation. A small number of studies suggest that incentive-based strategies, as well as home-based programs, may contribute to improving CR attendance and completion rates. A systematic approach to CR referral, including automatic CR referral, may help overcome barriers to CR referral in women and should be implemented in clinical practice. However, more studies are needed to help identify the best methods to improve CR attendance and completion of CR rates in women.

“…Women post CABG present more serious symptoms of depression, greater symptoms of anxiety and worse rehabilitation results in relation to level of stress after training [24]. During CR, women less frequently participate in training, are older and present a greater burden on the circulatory system, and the rehabilitation programme for them is longer [25]. The findings of the current study also confirm these observation.…”

“…This is partially attributed to the fact that women have increased microvascular disease that is not directly amenable to revascularization [27]. If women do undergo cardiac surgery, they are less likely to attend cardiac rehabilitation programs [28,29]. …”

This article reviews literature pertinent to cardiovascular disparities in women, focusing primarily on heart failure (HF). It provides an in-depth look at causes, biological influences, self-management and lack of adherence to HF-treatment guidelines in women. Disparities in treatment of causative factors of HF, such as myocardial infarction and hypertension, contribute to women having poorer HF outcomes than men. This article discusses major contributing reasons for nonadherence to medication regimes for HF in women, including advanced age at time of diagnosis, likelihood of multiple comorbidities, lack of social support and low socioeconomic status. Limited inclusion of women in clinical trials and the scarcity of gender analyses for HF and other cardiovascular diseases continues to limit the applicability of research findings to women.
