1) Identify CHD risk equivalents (clinical CHD, symp. carotid artery disease, PAD, abd aortic aneurysm, diabetes)
2. Major Risk Factors (smoking, HTN, low HDL, fam hx of premature CHD (<55m,<65f), Age (m>45, f>55). HDL>60 is neg risk factor
3) If 2 or more risk factors, assess framingham risk
4) 0-1 risk factors-->automatically low risk category |
