Cardiac includes coronary artery disease (≥1 vessel coronary artery stenosis requiring medical treatment, stent, or bypass graft), congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and ejection fraction ≤50%.

Arrhythmia is defined as atrial fibrillation or flutter, sick sinus syndrome, or ventricular arrhythmias.

Heart valve is any heart valve disease except mitral valve prolapse.
