About ASCVD Risk Score
The ASCVD (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease) risk score is a national guideline developed by the American College of Cardiology. It is a calculation of your 10-year risk of having a cardiovascular problem, such as a heart attack or stroke. This risk estimate considers age, sex, race, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, medication use, diabetic status, and smoking status.
Risk Scoring
The ASCVD risk score is given as a percentage. This is your chance of having heart disease or stroke in the next 10 years. There are different treatment recommendations depending on your risk score. ·
A score ranging from 0 to 4.9 percent risk is considered low. Eating a healthy diet and exercising will help keep your risk low. Medication is not recommended unless your LDL, or “bad” cholesterol, is greater than or equal to 190.
A score ranging from 5 to 7.4 percent risk is considered borderline. Use of a statin medication may be recommended if you have certain conditions, or “risk enhancers.” These conditions may increase your risk of a heart disease or stroke. Talk with your primary care provider to see if you have any of the risk enhancers in the list below.
A score ranging from 7.5 to 20 percent risk is considered intermediate. It is recommended that you start with moderate-intensity statin therapy.
A score ranging from greater than 20 percent risk is considered high. It is recommended that you start with high-intensity statin therapy.
