Short name: | PI20b-Proportion of First Nations regular clients who have the necessary risk factors recorded to assess absolute cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, December 2023 |
METEOR identifier: | 788077 |
Registration status: | Indigenous, Standard 25/02/2024 |
Description: | Proportion of First Nations regular clients with no known cardiovascular disease (CVD), aged 35 to 74, who had information available to calculate their absolute CVD risk. |
Rationale: | Assessment of absolute CVD risk based on multiple risk factors is more accurate than that based on individual risk factors due to the cumulative nature of risk effects. In view of this additive predictive power, basing management decisions using this approach should improve CVD outcomes. |

Presented as percentages. Operationalisation of tobacco smoking status, sex and age: Where a First Nations regular client’s tobacco smoking status and/or sex does not have an assessment date assigned within the Clinical Information System (CIS), tobacco smoking status and/or sex as recorded in the CIS should be treated as current (that is, as having been updated within the previous 24 months). While sex is specified in absolute CVD risk calculators, recording practices may vary between funded organisations and some CIS may collect gender (see Person—sex, code X). Age is to be derived from date of birth. All risk factors listed in the guidelines are included in this indicator for completeness; however, it is noted that for practical reasons in extracting information from the CIS:
