Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2-Diabetes (SCORE2-Diabetes)
Predicts 10-year CVD risk in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Use this score to predict 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease in European patients under 70 years of age and who have a history of diabetes.
Management
Cutoffs with treatment recommendations were updated in the 2023 ESC Guidelines for the management of cardiovascular disease in patients with diabetes aged 40–69 years.
Risk Categories and Lipid Goals
- Low risk (<5%): No specific LDL-C target recommended.
-
Moderate risk (5%–9.9%): LDL-C <2.6 mmol/L (<100 mg/dL).
- High risk (10%–19.9%): LDL-C <1.8 mmol/L (<70 mg/dL).
-
Very high risk (≥20%): LDL-C <1.4 mmol/L (<55 mg/dL).
