Cardiovascular Disease (10-year risk)

Cardiovascular Disease (10-year risk)

Recommended: 2018 ACSVD 10-year Risk Calculator

The Framingham Heart Study recommends the 2018 Prevention Guidelines Tool CV Risk Calculator to calculate to estimate 10-year and lifetime risks for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). This 2018 calculator has been provided by the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. The Risk Calculator enables health care providers and patients to estimate 10-year and lifetime risks for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), defined as coronary death or nonfatal myocardial infarction, or fatal or nonfatal stroke, based on the Pooled Cohort Equations and the work of Lloyd-Jones, et al., respectively. The information required to estimate ASCVD risk includes age, sex, race, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, blood pressure lowering medication use, diabetes status, and smoking status.

Duration of follow-up
Maximum of 12 years, 10-year risk prediction

Population of interest
Individuals 30 to 74 years old and without CVD at the baseline examination

Predictors

  • Age
  • Diabetes
  • Smoking
  • Treated and untreated Systolic Blood Pressure

Regression Coefficients and Hazard Ratios – Primary Model

Men* (10-year Baseline Survival: So(10) = 0.88936)
Variable Beta** p-value Hazard Ratio 95% CI

Women* (10-year Baseline Survival: So(10) = 0.95012)
Variable Beta** p-value Hazard Ratio 95% CI
Log of Age 2.32888 <.0001 10.27 (5.65, 18.64)
Log of Total Cholesterol 1.20904 <.0001 3.35 (2.00, 5.62)
Log of HDL Cholesterol -0.70833 <.0001 0.49 (0.351, 0.691)
Log of SBP if not treated 2.76157 <.0001 15.82 (7.86, 31.87)

Diabetes 0.69154 <.0001 2.00 (1.49, 2.67)

* The 10-year risk for women can be calculated as 1-0.95012exp(ΣßX – 26.1931) where ß is the regression coefficient and X is the level for each risk factor; the risk for men is given as 1-0.88936exp(ΣßX – 23.9802)
