Cholesterol
What is your total cholesterol (Mg/DL)?
Total cholesterol is the sum of all the cholesterol in your blood. The higher your total cholesterol, the greater your risk for heart disease.
If you do not know your total cholesterol level, please make an appointment with your primary healthcare provider.
Blood Pressure
What was the systolic reading of last blood pressure test?
Blood pressure is typically recorded as two numbers. The top number represents your systolic blood pressure, it is also the higher of the two numbers. It measures the pressure in the arteries when your heart beats.
If you do not know your total cholesterol level, please make an appointment with your primary healthcare provider.
Results
Intermediate Risk: A 10 to 20% risk that you will develop a heart attack or die from coronary disease in the next 10 years. This risk can be reduced by addressing and managing your risk factors with the help of your doctor.
Low Risk: Less than 10% risk that you will develop a heart attack or die from coronary disease in the next 10 years. Continue to manage your risk factors and visit your doctor regularly to assess your risk.
High Risk: A greater than 20% risk that you will develop a heart attack or die from coronary disease in the next 10 years. This risk can be reduced by addressing and managing your risk factors with the help of your doctor.
Important Note
The presence of any cardiovascular disease risk factor, including a family history of cardiovascular disease, requires appropriate attention because a single risk factor may mean that you have a high risk of developing cardiovascular disease in the long run, even if the 10-year risk does not appear to be high.
