Aims and MethodTo evaluate cardiovascular risk in a rural inpatient psychiatric unit over a one-year period. Care records were analysed for risk factor recording, and cardiovascular risks estimated using the QRISK3 calculator, which estimates 10-year risk of myocardial infarction or stroke. ResultsOf eligible patients, risk factor recording as part of routine care was completed in 86% of possible QRISK3 inputs, enabling QIRSK3 estimation in all eligible patients. QRISK3 for this group was raised (Relative risk: 3.8, 95%CI: 2.5 - 5.0). High risk of cardiovascular disease (QRISK3 score >10%) was detected in 28% of patients. Clinical ImplicationsThis service evaluation demonstrated significant unmet need for cardiovascular risk reduction that could be identified as part of routine care. An opportunity exists to integrate mental and physical healthcare by routinely assessing cardiovascular risk in psychiatric inpatients. Resources and training are needed to produce this risk information and act on it.
