Total Score:

If you scored 4 points or more, you could be at above average risk of a first heart attack compared to the general adult population.  The more points you score, the higher your risk.

If your total is 4 or more points you may be interested in scheduling an appointment with Arizona Heart Hospital.  This is a cardiovascular evaluation that is a quick, painless way to assess your risk for heart disease.

Use this test as a general guide.  If you have already had a heart attack or have heart disease, your heart attack risk is significantly higher.  Only your doctor can evaluate your risk and recommend treatment plans to reduce your risk.  If you don’t know your cholesterol level or blood pressure, ask your doctor if your levels should be checked.
