How old are you?
 
Note: The risk prediction model used for New Zealand is not validated in those >75 years old.
What is your sex?
Do you identify as Black?
What is your ethnicity?
What is your deprivation quintile?
Do you have a family history of heart disease or stroke?

Do you have diabetes?

Note: The risk prediction model used for Europe in patients <70 years old is not validated in those with diabetes.
Do you have atrial fibrillation?
What is your systolic blood pressure?
 
Do you take medications for blood pressure?
Do you take acetylsalicylic acid ("Baby Aspirin") or blood thinners (like warfarin)?
Do you take cholesterol medications?
Are you currently taking a statin?
What is your total cholesterol?
What is your HDL cholesterol?
Note: This decision aid cannot be used to predict cardiovascular risk in people with a non-HDL-cholesterol of 5.8 mmol/L or greater (>224 mg/dL), as it will substantially under-estimate the risk of cardiovascular events in these people.
Note: A non-HDL-cholesterol concentration above 6.5 mmol/L (≥251 mg/dL) may indicate familial hypercholesterolemia (inherited form of high cholesterol from birth). This decision aid substantially under-estimates the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia. As a safety measure, a concentration this high disables the tool.
What is your eGFR?
 
What is your serum creatinine?
eGFR (2021 CKD-EPI equation)
122 ml/min/1.73m²
What is your social deprivation index?
Do you have access to urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio and hemoglobin A1c values?
What is your albumin-to-creatinine ratio?
What is your hemoglobin A1c?
