Parameters contributing to cardiovascular sum score (number of affected vascular areas)

Disease areaHistory/presence of diseaseAtherosclerosis parametersContribution to sum score
CoronaryCAD1 area
CerebrovascularCBVDMean CCIMT >1.07 (75th percentile) or >50% carotid stenosis1 area
Peripheral arteryPADLowest ABI ≤0.91 area
Abdominal aneurysmAAAMaximum aorta diameter ≥3 cm1 area

Multiple vascular disease areas can be affected in one patient.

AAA, abdominal aorta aneurysm; ABI, ankle–brachial index; CAD, coronary artery disease; CBVD, cerebrovascular disease; CCIMT, common carotid intima–media thickness

PAD, peripheral artery disease.
