2. Framingham Risk Score - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framingham_Risk_Score

   The Framingham Risk Score is a sex-specific algorithm used to estimate the 10-year cardiovascular risk of an individual. The Framingham Risk Score was first developed based on data obtained from the Framingham Heart Study, to estimate the 10-year risk of developing coronary heart disease. [1]

3. QRISK - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QRISK

   QRISK3 (the most recent version of QRISK) is a prediction algorithm for cardiovascular disease (CVD) that uses traditional risk factors (age, systolic blood pressure, smoking status and ratio of total serum cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) together with body mass index, ethnicity, measures of deprivation, family history, chronic kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis, atrial ...

4. HeartScore - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HeartScore

   The SCORE risk estimation is based on the following risk factors: gender, age, smoking, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and estimates fatal cardiovascular disease events over a ten-year period. [citation needed] HeartScore is one of the tools developed to implement the 2007 European guidelines on CVD prevention in clinical practice. [2]

5. Revised Cardiac Risk Index - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revised_Cardiac_Risk_Index

   The Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) is a tool used to estimate a patient's risk of perioperative cardiac complications. The RCRI and similar clinical prediction tools are derived by looking for an association between preoperative variables (e.g., patient's age, type of surgery, comorbid diagnoses, or laboratory data) and the risk for cardiac complications in a cohort of surgical patients ...

   But BMI tends to overestimate body fat in people with a lot of muscle and it doesn’t show how much abdominal fat you have, which is a risk factor for health issues like cardiovascular disease.

7. Cardiovascular risk screening - Wikipedia

   Cardiovascular risk screening refers to the process of assessing an individual's likelihood of developing cardiovascular diseases.The main aim of screening is to identify risk factors early and adopt preventive measures to reduce morbidity and mortality.
