This is the only APP on hypertension currently validated and supported by the European Society of Hypertension. In the attempt to improve doctor-patient interaction and to increase awareness on hypertension and its associated risks the European Society of Hypertension, in collaboration with the Italian Society of Hypertension, has published a dedicated APP for smartphones and tablets. ESH CARE APP DEDICATED APP FOR SMARTPHONES AND TABLETS It also calculates risk across a wider age range than ASSIGN (25-84 years). QRISK3 considers more variables than ASSIGN when calculating cardiovascular risk and as such may provide a more tailored score for patients, although it is unclear whether this score is generalisable to the Scottish population. QRISK3 (the most recent iteration) is a cardiovascular risk calculator not validated for use in Scottish populations, based on data derived from general practices in England.

NICE recommends QRISK for calculating cardiovascular risk. However, the algorithm has not been updated since 2007 and as such does not take into account variables which have subsequently been associated with increased cardiovascular risk and are included in the more recent (2017) QRISK3 calculator e.g. ASSIGN is a cardiovascular risk calculator validated in Scottish populations ( Scottish Heart Health Extended Cohort). Yes I would like to receive valuable email communications from StarThrower Health with resources to understand and lower my risk for COVID-19 complications. In Scotland, ASSIGN is recommended for calculating cardiovascular risk. The COVIDAge Risk Calculator estimates risk for complications of COVID-19, including risk for hospitalization, ICU admission, and risk of mortality. The amount of additional risk (relative increase in risk) conferred from a family member to a patient depends on: (1) how close a relative, (2) age of a relative, (3) number of affected family members.
