The Merck CardioLinks™ app is a free, easily accessible, and secure mobile application for iPad® that provides tools for healthcare professionals to quickly assess and manage patient cardiovascular risk at the point of care. Record patient risk factors and enter relevant laboratory results to generate a 10-year Framingham Risk score and assign patients to an NCEP ATP III risk group. Determine patient lipid goals, calculate the absolute and percent changes patients need to reach those goals, and measure their progress over time.
