Women at Higher Risk of Death During Heart Bypass Surgery, Study FindsA study conducted by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine has found that women are at a higher risk of death during heart bypass surgery compared to men. The study suggests that this disparity is largely due to intraoperative anemia, the loss of red blood cells during surgery. Strategies for minimizing anemia during the procedure could potentially improve outcomes for women with cardiovascular disease.
