However, it has been shown that cardiovascular disease (CVD) is currently the leading cause of mortality in women in developed countries. Aim: to evaluate how this perception has changed in relation to health education campaigns present in Chile during the study period. Method: A survey was performed in 2007 (n= 409) and repeated in 2016 (n=431), including women working at a health institution, divided in 2 groups: professionals with a university degree (U) or health administrative and technical workers (W). The overall perception of CVD as a cause of death increased from 20% in 2007 to 37% in 2016 (p<0.01). The increase in the % of women perceiving CVD as main cause of death was greater in W women (14% to 34%, p<0.01) than in U women (39% to 44%, NS). Oncological diseases, mainly breast cancer, continued to be perceived as the main mortality cause in both groups of women in 2016. Conclusion: Although significant, the increase in % of women naming CVD as the main cause of death at a health institution was relatively small. Campaigns to increase the awareness of the significance of CVD in women should probably be revised.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Chilena de Cardiología y Cirugía CardiovascularRevista chilena de cardiología v.38 n.3 20192019-12-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0718-85602019000300213es10.4067/S0718-85602019000300213
