2 Figure 1 [Section 2.0] Framingham risk score for cardiovascular events. A, Calculator for men. B, Calculator for women. Determine the number of points a patient receives for each risk factor (steps 1 through 6) and add them together (step 7). Using the point total in step 8 (using appropriate column - LDL or cholesterol depending on which was used in step 2), find the corresponding 10-year CHD risk. (Reprinted with permission from Wilson et al.101) CHD = coronary heart disease; HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C = low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
