A recent article in a prominent medical journal explored the disparity of resource utilization between men and women. More men than women have major cardiac procedures, including catheterization, performed. This is thought to be because of which of the following reasons?
A. Fewer outcome studies have studied women with these disease
B. The incidence of cardiovascular disease is lower in women
C. Men have better health insurance
D. Men receive too many cardiovascular procedures
E. Provider attitudes has led to this situation

I think this is partly because women have smaller vessels and it is more difficult to do cardiac surgeries/procedures. Thus, physicians avoid doing these procedures. You can check and see that in most of the pre-operative risk assessment tools, developed for cardiac patients, being a female is a risk factor.
