Description-en: cardiovascular disease risk calculator
You can use this calculator to work out your risk of having a heart
attack or stroke over the next ten years by answering some simple
questions. It is suitable for people who do not already have a diagnosis
of heart disease or stroke.
.
The QRISK®2 algorithm has been developed by doctors and academics
working in the UK National Health Service and is based on routinely
collected data from many thousands of GPs across the country who have
freely contributed data for medical research.
.
Whilst QRISK2 has been developed for use in the UK, it is being used
internationally. For non-UK use, if the postcode field is left blank the
score will be calculated using an average value. Users should note,
however, that CVD risk is likely to be under-estimated in patients from
deprived areas and over-estimated for patients from affluent areas. All
medical decisions need to be taken by a patient in consultation with
their doctor. The authors and the sponsors accept no responsibility for
clinical use or misuse of these score.
