| Core Tip |
Disparities persist in the care of myocardial infarction (MI) in women and racial/ethnic minorities in the United States. They arrive at the hospital later, present with more risk factors and co-morbidities, and are less likely to receive guideline treatments. Women and blacks are less likely to receive revascularization. Younger women have more in-hospital mortality, and both blacks and women have greater long-term risk for death, recurrent MI, and re-hospitalization. Disparities in risk factors and co-morbidities among Hispanics/Latinos are complicated by the many subgroups. American Indians/Alaska Natives and Asian subpopulations have been much less studied, but surveillance data indicate more risk factors and co-morbidities among these subgroups.
