App needs updating

Please update the app to reflect that aspirin is no longer indicated for primary prevention!

Defective

The app returns an estimated risk based on current data. However the Therapy impact suggests various scenarios that are imprudent. Start HBP meds when the patient doesn’t have HBP. Or intensify Statins for patients whose risk is less than 7.5%

Great app; easy to use!

Wonderful app for new Guidelines
jeadams03

Optimal app to help to provide assessment and treatment recommendations for new Prevention guidelines. Helpful to decide who should be treated with statin therapy. Great addition!

Nice app but has a bug
RANDT1000

When I enter a TC of 179 along with my other factors, my lifetime risk is 5 pct. if I keep all else equal and raise TC to 180, the risk goes up over 30 pct. This cannot be correct.
