*This is the lifetime ASCVD risk for an individual at age 50 years with your risk factor levels. In rare cases, 10-year risks may exceed lifetime risks given that the estimates come from different approaches. While 10-year risk estimates are derived from methods and data using continuous variables, the reported estimate of lifetime risk is based on assigning each person into one of 5 mutually exclusive sex-specific groups, as per Lloyd-Jones et al., Circulation 2006; 113(6):791-8.  Within each of the 5 groups, each person receives the same lifetime risk estimate.  In other words, using this approach, there are only 5 possible lifetime risk estimates reported for men and only 5 possible lifetime risk estimates reported for women.  In some cases, the average risk for the group will underestimate the individual’s true lifetime risk.  This feature of lifetime risk estimation will result in the estimated lifetime risk being less than the estimated 10-year risk.  In these cases, the 10-year risk should be the primary focus for the risk discussion and risk reduction efforts. As further data becomes available and incorporated and methods mature, lifetime risk estimates based on continuous variables will be possible. | For patients and the public: *This is the lifetime risk of cardiovascular diseases, including stroke, for an individual at age 50 years with your risk factor levels. In rare cases, 10-year risks may exceed lifetime risks given that the estimates come from different mathematical approaches.  If this is the case, the 10-year risk should be the primary focus for your risk discussion with your provider and for your efforts to reduce your risk.
