About the package

CVrisk is a package to calculate various cardiovascular disease risk scores.

Currently available risk scores

Installation

# Install from CRAN
install.packages("CVrisk")

# Install the development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("vcastro/CVrisk")

Usage

Calculate a single score:

library(CVrisk)
ascvd_10y_accaha(race = "aa", gender = "male", age = 55, 
   totchol = 213, hdl = 50, sbp = 140, 
   bp_med = FALSE, smoker=0, diabetes=0)

# Calculate PREVENT risk score (requires additional parameters)
ascvd_10y_prevent(gender = "female", age = 50, sbp = 160, bp_med = 1,
   totchol = 200, hdl = 45, statin = 0, diabetes = 1, smoker = 0,
   egfr = 90, bmi = 35)
   

Calculate multiple scores for a dataframe and append scores to the dataframe:


# Compute traditional risk scores
compute_CVrisk(sample_data,
   age = "age", race = "race", gender = "gender", bmi = "BMI", sbp = "sbp",
   hdl = "hdl", totchol = "totchol", bp_med = "bp_med", smoker = "smoker",
   diabetes = "diabetes", lipid_med = "lipid_med",
   fh_heartattack = "fh_heartattack", cac = "cac"
)

# To include PREVENT score, specify scores explicitly and provide egfr
compute_CVrisk(make_sample_data(100),
   scores = c("ascvd_10y_accaha", "ascvd_10y_prevent"),
   age = "age", gender = "sex", sbp = "sbp", 
   hdl = "hdl", totchol = "totchol", bmi = "bmi",
   bp_med = "bp_med", diabetes = "diabetes", smoker = "smoker",
   statin = "lipid_med", egfr = "egfr"
)
