Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease EVENTs (PREVENT)
Predicts 10- and 30-year risk of CVD and CVD subtypes in patients aged 30-79 without known CVD.
Additional validation work is ongoing as of January 2024. Updates will be added here as they are published.
This tool is an update to the AHA/ACC Pooled Cohort Equations previously published in 2013. It now includes BMI, has expanded the age for which scores can be calculated, and excludes race. Additionally, it includes optional variables that better define the effect of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) conditions. Finally, it can provide risk estimates of total CVD along with subtypes including ASCVD, heart failure, coronary heart disease, and stroke.

The Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events (PREVENT) calculator was a collaborative research and publishing effort between many academic and professional groups. Collaborative workgroups and studies include the American Heart Association Risk Prediction Workgroup for the Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Science Advisory Group, Chronic Kidney Disease Prognosis Consortium, Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults Study (CARDIA), Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study (CRIC), Framingham Heart Study, Geisinger Health System, Jackson Heart Study (JHS), Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), Rancho Bernardo Study, and Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke Study (REGARDS).
