INAUGURAL AFRICAN WOMEN’S HEART HEALTH SYMPOSIUM

Description

A Life-Course Agenda for African Women’s Cardiovascular Health The Inaugural African Women’s Heart Health Symposium brings cardiovascular science into the real-life settings in which women’s risk is recognised, assessed and managed — primary care, reproductive health, pregnancy, menopause, cardiometabolic and cardiorenal care, and specialist cardiovascular practice. Co-hosted by KCS and APOG, the symposium connects patients’ lived experience with clinicians, researchers, health-system leaders, policymakers, payers, professional societies and advocates. The programme moves from earlier recognition and better diagnosis to evidence-based treatment, integrated life-course care and accountable implementation.
