Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Assess the impact of disclosing a high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease on change in cardiovascular health

    Change in cardiovascular health from baseline to one year as measured by the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) Score will be compared between an intervention arm that receives a high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease and a control group that receives standard of care. The LE8 score ranges between 0 and 100 with higher numbers indicating better cardiovascular health.

    1 year

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive their high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease.

Behavioral: Disclosure of high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Participants will receive standard of care, and disclosure of high polygenic risk result will be deferred until study completion.

Interventions

The disclosure of a high polygenic risk result for coronary artery disease involves a clinical report coupled with a virtual meeting with a genetic counselor.
