SUMMARY:2025 Canadian Women's Heart Health Summit
DESCRIPTION:2025 theme: Reflecting on the past\, empowering the present\, and shaping the future. \nProudly hosted by the University of Ottawa Heart Institute‘s Canadian Women’s Heart Health Centre\, and Heart & Stroke\, the Canadian Women’s Heart Health Summit is the only event of its kind and has become the national reference point for health professionals seeking up-to-date knowledge of women’s heart\, brain and vascular health. \nBuilding on the success of the previous four Summits\, we have assembled national and international experts and collaborators to further advance women’s heart\, brain\, and vascular health. \nTogether\, we will transform and enhance Canadian women’s lives through research\, awareness\, policy development\, and care. \n2025 Summit Objectives \n\nDiscuss the progress made in sex and gender-based research and practice since the first Summit in 2016\nUnite key collaborators to improve heart\, brain\, and vascular health among women\nIdentify emerging and future areas\, gaps and health disparities in research and clinical practice for heart\, brain\, and vascular conditions affecting women\nChampion and make use of equity-promoting strategies to enhance the adoption of evidence-based research and clinical practices for heart\, brain\, and vascular health in women\n\nThis is an accredited\, clinical\, and scientific opportunity to foster knowledge exchange among a diverse group of collaborators\, including primary care providers\, cardiologists\, neurologists\, gynecologists\, pharmacists\, nurses\, cardiac rehabilitation providers\, allied healthcare professionals\, researchers\, policy-makers\, community partners\, people with lived and living experience (PWLLE)\, and caregivers. \n\nWhen we talk about women\, we mean ALL women. \nSex and Gender are complementary concepts but they are not interchangeable. Sex describes biology\, such as hormones and chromosomes\, while Gender describes our lived experience and how we move through the world. \nIt is important that we understand these differences as they impact the amount of clinical knowledge we have specific to women\, the appropriateness of clinical best practices used to treat women (such as diagnostic procedures and interventions)\, how women seek knowledge and care\, and so much more. \nWhen we talk about women\, we mean all women. \nPeople who identify as women make up just over half of the population in Canada and we choose to take an intersectional approach to understanding health inequities faced by women and how to address them. \nWe understand that women’s health is shaped by many different and overlapping factors\, including sex\, indigeneity\, race\, ability\, sexual orientation\, education\, income\, geographic location and more. This includes cisgender and transgender women\, and non-binary people. \nThis event is an Accredited Group Learning Activity (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada\, and approved by the University of Ottawa’s Office of Continuing Professional Development. You may claim a maximum of 15\,00 hours (credits are automatically calculated). \nAttend here!
