Are you wondering how healthy your heart is? The online Atrium Health Heart Health Assessment can help you discover important information about your cardiovascular health and identify risks factors that you can change.
Click here to take the assessment, which asks a series of questions and then provides an overall look at your cardiovascular health.
“The Atrium Health Heart Health Assessment is a great tool to determine your risk factors for cardiovascular disease as well as your estimated heart age,” said Stephanie Durall, the coordinator of the Atrium Health Floyd Cardiac Center of Excellence. “This is a great tool to complete prior to your annual visit to your primary care provider so you can discuss the results with your physician.”
Cardiovascular disease remains the No. 1 cause of death in the United States and most who die suddenly never reported any previous symptoms. That is why it is so important to be aware of your heart health risks.
This easy-to-take health assessment can help you discover important information about your cardiovascular health and risks factors by
- comparing your actual age to your heart’s biological age
- calculating your 10-year risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
- determining your 30-year risk of cardiovascular disease if you are younger than 60
- Prioritizing your most harmful cardiovascular risk factors
After you take the assessment, it will email you a multi-page report ranking your personal risk factors, your heart age based on your health instead of your chronological age, and your cardiovascular risk estimate over a certain time period.
