Scenario 1
Scenario Overview
This scenario is designed to test the calculator's capability to compute the parameters provided using the updated Singapore-modified Framingham Risk Score.
Based on the scenario, the patient should be stratified as a patient with low cardiovascular risk.
Our calculator is embedded towards the end of the page to facilitate your testing.

Expected Results
Based on the above scenario, the patient will arrive at a risk score of 2%, according to the updated Singapore-modified Framingham Risk Score.
The following results will be provided by the calculator.
Segment |
Key Results |
---|---|
Estimated 10-Year Coronary Artery Disease Risk: |
Low risk (<5%) |
Target LDL cholesterol: |
Consider ideal LDL-C <3.4 mmol/L (<130 mg/dL). Focus on lifestyle intervention. Consider risk-benefit discussion for a statin if LDL-C persistently >4.1 mmol/L (>160 mg/dL) |
Target Blood Pressure: |
<140/90 mmHg Consider going lower (e.g. <130/80 mmHg) as tolerated, especially if the patient has hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD) |
Target HbA1c: |
No target HbA1c recommendation, as patient does not have diabetes mellitus. |
