Cardiovascular risk calculator. FRESCO
developed by REGICOR group
This application computes the FRESCO risk using the short version of the equation.
User must upload a data base with at least the required variables to compute short version of FRESCO:
age: from 35 to 79 years old,
sex: male, female,
body mass index and
smoking status: current smokers or former < 1 year, never smokers or former > 1 year.
Note that FRESCO has been built and validated on 35-79 year old population. Therefore, estimates on older persons may not be accurate.
