The Sociedad Española de Cardiología (SEC), or Spanish Society of Cardiology, is a prominent organization focused on cardiovascular health in Spain. Recent news highlights the SEC's role in raising awareness about cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly its significance as the leading cause of death in women. Experts affiliated with the SEC, such as Dr. Ignacio Fernández, are urging increased public awareness and preventative measures, emphasizing that women often underestimate or are unaware of the risks.
