If this has been written in medical notes it may refer to the CHADS2 score. In patients with Atrial Fibrilation the CHADS2 score determines the risk of having a stroke and helps to determine whether a patient should be started on warfarin therapy to prevent this.

C = Cardiac failure (1)

H = Hypertension (1)

A = Age >75 (1)

D = Diabetes (1)

S = Stroke/TIA (2)

score 0-1 - usually requires aspirin

score 2+ warfarin
