Rationale for change
Suggest to remove cards for CHADS2 score, since CHADSVASc is probs better.
ETG says "The CHA2DS2-VASc scoring system to assess stroke risk is widely used; see Table 3.10. Use of the CHA2DS2 score has decreased since the introduction of CHA2DS2-VASc; however, at the time of writing, the availability of DOACs on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) is determined by a patient’s CHA2DS2 score—see the PBS website for current information."
I think this is a pretty niche discussion point, probs beyond the need of a final year med student to know, and keeping both cards might be confusing?
