CVD Risk Estimator Plus

American College of Cardiology Foundation

About this app

This clinical decision support app unifies two cardiovascular prevention tools: the 2013 ACC/AHA Pooled Cohort Equations (previously known as the ASCVD Risk Estimator) and the American Heart Association’s PREVENT™ Calculator. Combining traditional ASCVD risk modeling with modern cardiovascular kidney metabolic (CKM)–inclusive risk equations, CVD Risk Estimator Plus provides clinicians with a comprehensive, personalized cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment.

CVD Risk Estimator Plus computes risk estimates using:
• 2013 ASCVD Pooled Cohort Equations (PCE), which calculate 10 year and lifetime risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease using age, sex, race, blood pressure, cholesterol profile, diabetes status, and smoking status.
• 2023 PREVENT™ Equations, which estimate 10 and 30 year risk for total CVD, ASCVD, and heart failure (HF), incorporating kidney and metabolic health measures such as BMI and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and supporting optional predictors including urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and social deprivation index (SDI).

Clinicians can toggle between Pooled Cohort and PREVENT™ risk trajectories to support guideline aligned prevention conversations. This clinical decision support app provides:
• Risk category classification (low, borderline, intermediate, high).
• Export functionality supporting print and email of results for documentation and patient communication.
• Resources page with related tools and informational resources for both clinicians and patients, as well as links to reference documents.

Ratings and reviews

still waiting for the "late March" update for the new guidelines. iPhone app already has the update

Automatic update to plus. You added med recommendations previous data etc....but text is too big. What happened to th aesthetically pleasing version that would not freeze up when going from tab to tab...needs more work. Otherwise great bedside calculator!

great app. easy to use and good information. one small bug. after entering information in the 'estimate risk' tab, when you go to clear the information the 'reset all' button is blocked

What’s new

Welcome to the newly modernized CVD Risk Estimator Plus, unifying two cardiovascular prevention tools: the 2013 ACC/AHA Pooled Cohort Equations (previously known as the ASCVD Risk Estimator) and the American Heart Association’s PREVENT™ Calculator. Combining traditional ASCVD risk modeling with modern cardiovascular‑kidney‑metabolic (CKM)–inclusive risk equations, CVD Risk Estimator Plus provides clinicians with a comprehensive, personalized cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment.
