Risk Factor Summary
Clinical note: This calculator implements the Framingham Risk Score (Wilson et al., 1998 / ATP III 2001 update) for hard coronary events in adults aged 30–79 without prior cardiovascular disease. It is a screening aid, not a substitute for clinical judgment. Individual risk may differ from population-based estimates.
