PS1-51: Testing a Clinical Decision Support Process to Lower Cardiovascular Risk of Patients

Background/Aims More than 30% of adults in the U.S. have a 10% risk or greater of having a heart attack in the next 10 years. The proportion of adults with moderate and high cardiovascular risk (CVR) accounts for nearly half of the first major cardiovascular (CV) events in the United States. Shared decision support tools may reduce CVR by facilitating and prioritizing provider-patient communication about CV risk.
