Step 1 - Load Excel File
Step 2: Specify Input Data
Step 3: Preview Data
The following columns have been added to the data set:
- ascvd: The 10-year ASCVD risk expressed as a decimal value (e.g. 0.075 = 7.5% 10-year risk). If an ASCVD value was not able to be calculated (usually due to missing data), this value was set to -1.
- ascvd_warning: If a patient's input parameters were outside of the allowable limits (such as being too young or too old), a warning message will appear in this column. If an error occurred when calculating an ASCVD value, this column will indicate the reason for the error.
IMPORTANT: It is the user's responsibility to validate the ASCVD calculation with the sample file. You should download the sample file and validate that the ASCVD calculations are accurate and that the document is in an acceptable format for your needs. At a minimum, test data for the following four patient types: black male, black female, non-black male, non-black female.

About This Calculator
This conversion tool calculates a 10-year ASCVD (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease) risk from an Excel document. For optimal security and privacy, all calculations are conducted on the user's computer; no data from the Excel document are transmitted to ClinCalc.com.
The ASCVD calculation is derived from the 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk. 1 Note that the ACC website (ASCVD Risk Estimator Plus) includes additional input variables (diastolic blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, aspirin, statin, etc.) that are not components of the 10-year ASCVD risk calculation but are used for other components of the ACC website.
How to Use this Conversion Tool
The following video uses this sample Excel file; however, users may use any spreadsheet format or data coding method when using this website.
Disclaimer
While this calculator has been extensively tested for accuracy with the 2013 ACC/AHA 10-year ASCVD risk calculation, it is the user's responsibility to validate ASCVD calculations with the inputted data set. Validation can occur with the ClinCalc.com ASCVD Calculator or the ACC Risk Estimator Plus. At a minimum, users should validate ASCVD calculations for the following four patient types: black male, black female, non-black male, and non-black female.
