To calculate your Healthy Heart Age, we use something called QRISK. This combines your personal and health information — such as your age, sex, ethnicity and the area you live in — to estimate your heart age.
Please note that your Healthy Heart Age will only be calculated if you meet all of the following:
- You are aged between 25 and 84 years old
- You have not previously had a heart attack or stroke (CV event)
- You do not have type 1 or type 2 diabetes
- Your height is between 4 ft 7 in and 8 ft (140 cm – 210 cm)
- Your weight is between 40 kg and 180 kg (6 st 4 lb – 28 st 4 lb)
If you fall outside any of these, your Healthy Heart Age won't be displayed — but your cholesterol can still be calculated as normal.
