There is now sufficient evidence to consider CAC scoring for patients with inflammatory conditions such as Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, HIV, and other autoimmune disorders. #CACFact #YesCCT

FiRST - SCCT@FiRSTSCCT31 Dec 2019

The current average cost of a CAC score is $100 and not covered by most insurance carriers, making it too expensive for low-income populations. The potential benefit is not available to all unless insurance coverage is mandated. #CACFact #YesCCT

In the moderate intensity statin group the projected NNT was 246 for those with a CAC of 0, and 39 for a CAC >100. #CACFact #YesCCT

Using the 2013 AHA/ACC Cholesterol guidelines, a 10yr follow up of the MESA projected the NNT to prevent an atherosclerotic event in patients with a CAC of 0 to be 68, and 24 in those with a CAC>100. #CACFact #YesCCT

The NNT to prevent a cardiac event in patients with a CAC score of 0 was 549, 94 in those with a CAC of 1-100, and 24 in those with a CAC >100. #CACFact #YesCCT

A simulated reanalysis of the JUPITER trial estimated the NNT to prevent a cardiac event in patients based on their CAC score. #CACFact #YesCCT

In comparison, 154 patients with 3 lipid abnormalities and a CAC score of 0 need to be treated with a statin prevent a cardiac event. #CACFact #YesCCT

In statin-naïve patients, 30 patients with a CAC score >100 and no lipid abnormalities need to be treated with a statin to prevent a cardiac event. #CACFact #YesCCT

In older and younger patients CAC scoring efficiently uncovers higher risk patients who need to be treated and identifies those who will most benefit from therapy. #CACFact #YesCCT
