PooledCohort: Predicted Risk for CVD using Pooled Cohort Equations, PREVENT
Equations, and Other Contemporary CVD Risk Calculators
The 2017 American College of Cardiology and American Heart
Association blood pressure guideline recommends using 10-year predicted
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk to guide the decision to
initiate or intensify antihypertensive medication. The guideline recommends
using the Pooled Cohort risk prediction equations to predict 10-year
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk. This package implements the
original Pooled Cohort risk prediction equations and also incorporates
updated versions based on more contemporary data and statistical methods.
