ASCVD Risk Calculator Pooled Cohort Equations - Cardiac Risk Assist App Reviews

Patients like to see those reassuring numbers(or not) And I use it as a motivator for aggressive therapy . Good graphics, easy access. Wish Recc font a little bigger .

We used a few practice problems to check this out and it was right on!!! This is a fantastic app and makes CVD risk assessment so easy!

Very easy to use!

Simple to use. Single screen. A handful of entries and you have a risk listed.

Helps me make care decision while Im evaluating pts. Powerful resource for the EBM-minded clinician.

So easy, fast, handy!! I love it-use it all the time!!!

Excellent Very useful tool to reinforce patient re lifestyle changes

I use often and helps save me a lot of time. Very user friendly!

Phenomenal application! Accurate and works every time!!

This apps will calculate ASCVD risk scores just like the ACC/AHA app, but I find this app easier to use than the ACC/AHA app, especially if you are calculating scores for multiple people (health fair).

Can you include a tolerance algorithm? Ie: muscle aches on zocor, whats next?

Love this app... Best/easiest one ever used.. With most info

I like that it is all in one page so no need to swipe to see results

Every day tool for quick clinical decisions.

Easy to use, with clear and specific recommendations. I use this daily to help guide treatment decisions as a family med PA-C.

How come the guidelines state to use LDL but the calculator only uses HDL? Otherwise I love to have a quick tool to use at POC.

Very easy to use. Great tool to show patients their CV risk during office visits.

I am a medical director at a prison hospital and many of the patients have not smoked for years. However, I do not know whether not to classify them as smokers are non-smokers. It seems too cut and dried. Also, diabetes, I am sure the risk increases immeasurably depending on the control of the patients diabetes. Also, I believe the patients BMI would also be a factor in the cardiac risk. I have done now the calculation on several of my patients. And it appears to me the biggest risk factor is age. However, I do find it a very useful app. It does help me determine the preventive services that the patient needs.

I am a DNP student and this app is very well organized, very quick and easy to use. Ill probably be using this app in practice one day! Thanks again

This makes it so easy to use. Best new app!
