Clinical provides users with two CVD Risk Calculators; an Absolute Risk Calculator, and a Relative Risk Calculator (selectable via associated buttons on the window). This section is about the Absolute Cardiovascular Risk Calculator.

The Absolute CVD Risk Calculator is an initiative of the Australian National Vascular Disease Prevention Alliance and is reproduced in Clinical with their permission.

The Calculator is designed to help you asses your patients' risk of cardiovascular disease by analysing multiple risk factors, and providing you with a numerical probability of a CVD event occurring within five years, expressed as a percentage. The calculator is based on specifications outlined in the guide "Functional Specification: Australian Absolute Cardiovascular Disease Risk Calculator (May 2009)", prepared by NPS on behalf of NVDPA; National Prescribing Service Limited. Australian Absolute Cardiovascular Disease Risk Calculator Functional Specifications. Surry Hills: National Prescribing Service Limited, 2009.

Risk parameters used in the Absolute CVD Risk Calculator are based on the Framingham Risk Equation.
