Abstract
Objectives: To explore the role of risk factors and biomarkers, in anticipating the possibility of developing cardiovascular events in a group of patients using the Framingham Risk Score (FRS). Design: Participants Population-based sample of individuals aged between 40 and 75 years old (125 women and 132 men). A Prospective observational study conducted in medicine wards of a tertiary-care hospital for six months. The newly admitted case charts diagnosed with hypertension, diabetes and geriatric patients. We collected the required data in form case sheets, treatment chart, lab master, the physical examination of the medication with the patient is also verified. We used a prepared questionnaire to gather information of patient data collection to collect all the details like inpatient number, age, sex, social status, laboratory data, weight, height, Blood Pressure (BP), family history and therapeutic management, then introduced the data to FRS risk score calculator. FRS is designed to predict the risk of heart problems (including mortality) caused by coronary heart disease and non-fatal myocardial infarction for ten years to come in the life of the individual, considering the risk factors score calculated for each risk factor in the study sample
