Based on your Heart Age and Risk Estimates above, your 10- year risk for cardiovascular disease is Moderate.

Ask a doctor what you can do to lower your risk.

Your Heart Age is older than your current age. This indicates that certain risk factors put you at higher CVD risk than others of your same age.

•

• You answered all risk factor questions. Continue to "know your numbers."

• Be very aware of your High and/or Moderate risk factors, especially those risk factors that you can change.

• Discuss this report with your primary care physician or heart specialist.

• Ask your doctor when you are due to have your tests and numbers updated and be aware of the results. Decreasing Your Risk of CVD

Everyone is at risk for cardiovascular disease

(CVD). Some cardiovascular disease risk factors

are beyond your control, such as age or family

history. Others, like blood pressure and

cholesterol, often can be controlled through

lifestyle changes (diet & exercise) and/or

medication.

It is important that you talk with your doctor

about a strategy to reduce your risk factors for

developing CVD.

Remember, in most cases you can decrease your

risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

CVD Risk Factors Your Risk

Family history of early CVD High Risk

Age & sex High Risk

Weight High Risk

Diabetes Moderate Risk

Blood pressure (systolic & diastolic) Moderate Risk Physical activity Moderate Risk

Existing CVD Low Risk

Cholesterol Low Risk

Smoking Low Risk

In the United States, cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of death. Most who die suddenly from cardiovascular-related disease have no previous symptoms. Because of this, it is important to be aware of your heart health risks. Copyright 2022 - Medicom Health

What is "Heart Age?"

Heart Age is a quick way to get a good idea of your overall heart health. It compares your CVD risk against someone without any risk factors.

For example, if your real age is 55 but your Heart Age is 65, your cardiovascular risk is more like a healthy 65 year-old (without any risk factors).

The fewer risk factors you have, the closer your heart age will be to your actual age. In fact, it may be younger.

What does "Risk of CVD" mean?

This is your chance of having a cardiovascular event (heart attack, stroke, heart failure, or peripheral artery disease) in the future, shown as a percentage .

For example, if your 10-year risk is calculated to be 15%, then it is estimated that 15 out of a hundred people like you will have a cardiovascular event in the next 10 years.

For people younger than 60, this assessment can also calculate 30-year risk of CVD.

What are "CVD Risk Factors"

A cardiovascular disease risk factor is any personal characteristic that increases your chances of CVD, such as high blood pressure. The more total High and Moderate risk factors you have, the more likely you are to develop CVD.

You can work with your doctor to improve many of your risk factors and decrease your risk level.

Risk Factors You CAN Change

Smoking damages the heart and blood

vessels. Smokers have a much higher risk of

cardiovascular disease.

SMOKING

Current

Never smoked

Low Risk

Recommended Goal

Smoke-free at least 1 year

Low Risk

Being overweight or obese increases the risk

of heart disease.

Keeping weight in the healthy range lowers

the risk of heart disease and diabetes. It can

also improve blood pressure and cholesterol.

WEIGHT

Current

236 lbs.

High Risk

Recommended Goal

168 lbs. or less

Low Risk

For your height, 236 pounds is considered obesity. Ask a health care professional about weight management options. Including exercise and other physical

activities in your daily routine can reduce

your risk of stroke.

Regular physical activity improves other risk

factors:

• Weight

• Blood pressure

• Cholesterol

• Blood sugar

WEEKLY PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Current

Equal to 20 min. (moderate)*

Moderate Risk

Recommended Goal

150 min. or more (moderate)**

Low Risk

Talk to your doctor about the risk factor(s) shown, including your risk level and what can be done to reduce it.

*20 moderate + 0 vigorous = 20 min. moderate

(each minute of vigorous exercise equals two minutes of moderate)

**The goal is 150 minutes of moderate exercise or

an equivalent mix of moderate and vigorous minutes. The Framingham Heart Study

This assessment uses the Framingham Heart Study to estimate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It estimates CVD risk in the next 10 years and in the next 30 years for people younger than 60. The Framingham Heart Study is one of the most important public health studies in American medical history. Its goal is to learn why people get heart disease and how the disease progresses. This research helps better understand heart disease and the people who develop it.

Risk Factors You CAN Change

Your personal blood pressure goal should be

determined by your doctor based on several

different health factors.

If your blood pressure is too high, your heart

and blood vessels can be damaged. High

blood pressure is often called the silent killer

because it has no symptoms.

Blood pressure increases as you grow older,

so be sure to have it checked every year.

Blood pressure may be controlled by:

• Exercising regularly

• Maintaining a healthy weight

Eating a healthful diet, including lowering

the amount of salt

•

• Limiting alcohol use

Taking blood pressure medicine (if a

doctor prescribes it)

•

SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE

Current

125 mm Hg

Moderate Risk

Recommended Goal

Less than 120 mm Hg

Low Risk

DIASTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE

Current

75 mm Hg

Low Risk

Recommended Goal

Less than 80 mm Hg

Low Risk

Talk to your doctor about the risk factor(s) shown, including your risk level and what can be done to reduce it. You indicated that you are taking

medication for this risk factor.

Cholesterol is a type of fat that is found in

the blood. It can build up in arteries and

block them, causing heart and blood vessel

disease.

There are no symptoms for abnormal

cholesterol.

A simple blood test will show if you’re

meeting the recommended goals.

Some people can control their cholesterol by

maintaining a healthy weight, being

physically active, and eating a healthy diet.

Other people need medication to reach their

goals.

CHOLESTEROL

Current

Within recommended ranges

Low Risk

Recommended Goal

"Normal" cholesterol ranges

Low Risk

You indicated that you are taking

medication for this risk factor.

"NORMAL" CHOLESTEROL RANGES

Total cholesterol = Less than 200 mg/dL

HDL "good" cholesterol (men) = 40 mg/dL or higher

HDL "good" cholesterol (women) = 50 mg/dL or higher LDL "bad" cholesterol = Less than 100 mg/dL

Triglycerides = Less than 150 mg/dL

Risk Factors You CAN'T Change

Age is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

Risk starts increasing at age 45 for men and

age 55 for women.

AGE & SEX

61 years (Female)

High Risk

Having cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a

major risk factor for heart attack, stroke,

heart failure, and peripheral artery disease

(poor blood flow in the legs). Meeting the

recommended goal for other CVD risk factors

may help lower that risk.

EXISTING CVD

No existing CVD

Low Risk

Includes: heart disease, heart attack, heart failure, stroke or mini-stroke

(TIA), angina or chest pain, and/or peripheral artery disease Diabetes is a major risk factor for

cardiovascular disease. That’s why it’s so

important for people with diabetes to control

all of their other cardiovascular risk factors.

DIABETES

Prediabetes

Moderate Risk

Talk to your doctor about the risk factor(s) shown, including your risk level and what can be done to reduce it. Having a brother or father diagnosed with

cardiovascular disease (CVD) before they

turned 55 years old increases your risk for

CVD. Having a mother or sister with CVD

before age 65 also increases your risk.

FAMILY HISTORY OF EARLY CVD

Early CVD family history

High Risk
