Physicians' Knowledge and Gender Sensitivity in German Inpatient Cardiology

A German cross-sectional online survey of 155 physicians working in inpatient cardiology wards assessed gender sensitivity, knowledge of sex- and gender-specific cardiovascular guidelines, and perceived implementation of gender-sensitive care. The dataset contains results from descriptive, correlational, and regression analyses, including mean scores and standard deviations for key metrics. It was authored by Sophia Sgraja and last updated on 2026-04-29.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the relationship between physician demographics and gender sensitivity based on survey scores.
• Identifying specific knowledge gaps in sex- and gender-specific cardiovascular guideline content.
• Investigating the disconnect between awareness, knowledge, and clinical application of gender-sensitive care.
• Comparing perceived implementation of gender-sensitive care across different hospital settings (e.g., university vs. non-university).

Strengths

• Dataset includes results from 155 physician respondents, providing a specific sample size.
• Contains specific statistical results, including mean scores and standard deviations for gender sensitivity (M=3.95, SD=0.73), knowledge (M=0.63, SD=0.08), and perceived implementation (M=2.45, SD=0.59).
• Clear methodological description: a cross-sectional online survey with descriptive, correlational, and regression analyses.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is limited to a single survey of 155 physicians in German inpatient cardiology, representing a specific geographic and clinical context.
