Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women. Researchers fear our health system isn't keeping up.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women globally.
The report made a number of recommendations, including more education on early detection for health care providers and patients, recruiting more women for cardiac studies and prioritizing research on heart disease in women. 
Doctors say strengthening the health care system's ability to detect these cardiovascular issues and building awareness of them could prevent numerous deaths and near-fatal incidents — like that of New York resident Yulia Nurikyan, who knew something was not right just weeks before her baby was due.
