Lead Story: Heart Disease in Woman

Program Description:

This audio program features current news and information from the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).

Sunday, May 14, is Mother’s Day and also is the beginning of Women’s Health Week, a national observance started by HHS’ Office on Women’s Health. The goal of National Women's Health Week is to encourage women to take simple steps for a longer, healthier, and happier life. To contribute to this effort, AHRQ is devoting this edition of Healthcare 411 to issues related to women’s health.

This week’s News and Numbers is about women and cardiovascular disease.

AHRQ Director Dr. Carolyn Clancy is with us to discuss AHRQ’s research about women’s health.

And we also talk with Dr. Rosaly Correa, AHRQ’s Director of Women’s Health and Gender Research.
