| Points | 10-yr Risk | Points | 10-yr Risk |
|---|
| ≤-3 | 1% | 6 | 11% |
| -2 to -1 | 2% | 7 | 14% |
| 0 | 3% | 8 | 18% |

Points = Age + Total Chol + HDL + SBP (±BP treatment) + Smoking + Diabetes
Low risk <10% | Intermediate 10–20% | High >20%
Clinical Notes:
• Patients with established CVD or DM are automatically high risk — no calculation needed
• High risk (>20%): statin therapy recommended regardless of LDL
• Intermediate risk (10–20%): consider statin, lifestyle modification
• Reassess risk every 4–6 years in low-risk patients
