Treatment of spontaneous coronary artery dissection
A consortium of ten international academic organisations within the Global Cardiovascular Research Funders Forum (GCRFF) is launching a new international study. For the first time, the study will investigate the optimal antiplatelet therapy for spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a distinct form of heart attack that primarily affects women. The initiative is led by the German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK) and is coordinated by the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE).
