3 Global CV risk assessment.. Art and / or Science Learning Objectives CV risk assessment: art & science Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to: Do a critical appraisal of CV risk assessment Evaluate indications and limitations of CV risk stratification Calculate vascular age; discuss how vascular age assessment can help in CV risk reduction stop.jpg CV; cardiovascular 4 Global Cardiovascular Risk Assessment and Risk Reduction in Hypertensive Women Module 2 Global Cardiovascular Risk Assessment and Reduction in Women with Hypertension Pamela A 54-year-old, post-menopausal woman presents to your office for an annual examination This program meets the accreditation criteria of The College of Family Physicians of Canada and has been accredited for up to X Mainpro M1 credits. Pamela Pamela Patient history Pamela, a 54-year-old teacher who is post-menopausal, presents for an annual exam She attends aerobic classes 2x/week She admits to smoking 3-4 cigarettes/day, and occasionally more, when stressed She has no health complaints and is not on any medications Family history Mother, aged 74, diagnosed with intermittent claudication at 62 years of age Father, aged 79, no history of CV disease Physical exam BMI: 26.8 kg/m 2 ; waist circumference: 87 cm BP: 148/88 (avg. of repeated measures with validated oscillometric device [eg, Bp-TRU]) HR: 72 bpm Nothing else of significance on physical exam You send Pamela for routine labs CV: cardiovascular; BMI: body mass index; BP: blood pressure; HR: heart rate Bp TRU (BPM 100) Vsm Medtech, Coquitlam, BC, Canada 1

Using Framingham table? Using SCORE Canada? Define CV risk? Blood Cholesterol, high blood pressure & cigarette smoking explain at least 75% of CHD cases. Add diabetes to list and explain about 85% or more of CHD cases. Source: Magnus P & Beaglehole R.

Governments, national societies, and foundations should collaborate to develop clinical and public health guidelines 2. Evidence-based guidelines should incorporate professional judgment on the translation of such evidence into effective and efficient care 3.
