Description
This skill provides structured calculation guidance for commonly used cardiovascular risk scores and related decision tools. It supports accurate input collection, calculation, interpretation, and safety caveats.
Quick Reference
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
| ASCVD Pooled Cohort Equations | 10-year ASCVD risk estimation |
| CHA2DS2-VASc | Stroke risk in atrial fibrillation |
| HAS-BLED | Major bleeding risk in anticoagulated patients |
| Framingham Risk Score | 10-year cardiovascular risk (general CVD) |
| HEART Score | Chest pain risk stratification |
| CURB-65 | Pneumonia severity and disposition support |
| Wells (DVT) | DVT pretest probability |
| Wells (PE) | Pulmonary embolism pretest probability |
Interactive Mode (Lightweight)
- Confirm clinical context and intended tool.
- Collect required inputs with units and timing.
- Validate inputs and resolve missing data.
- Calculate and present results with interpretation.
- Provide safety caveats and limitations.
Calculators
- ASCVD Pooled Cohort Equations
- CHA2DS2-VASc
- HAS-BLED
- Framingham Risk Score
- HEART Score
