Development of New Point-of-Care Tools to Assess Cardiovascular Disease Risk for Women within the Primary Healthcare Setting

Abstract

The major goal of the first year was to externally validate the VA women CVD risk score with different women population non-VA women and recalibrated the VA women CVD risk score to predict ASCVD risk at 10 years in non-VA women as needed. Specific Aim 1: Externally validate and recalibrate the VA women CVD risk score to non-VA and new VA enrollee women. The VA women CVD risk score predicted Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) event risk at 10 years well for Non-Hispanic (N-H) White, Non-Hispanic (N-H) Black, and Hispanic civilian women and active women military service members with calibration in-the-large. The VA women CVD risk score was calibrated in-the-large with 10-year ASCVD event free survival, S(10), updated from DHS and DaVINCI data, respectively.
