 ===== Description =====
-=== Purpose of the module ===
+The module's purpose is to document patients risk factors for certain diseases, ranging from family history over biomarkers to individual lifestyle and occupational risk factors. It helps the standardized documentation also by providing the definition for each risk factor (e.g. what age is typically thought to be "normal" for a cardiovascular event and therefore not considered a risk factor).

 The module can then also provide this information to other modules that implement risk calculators (e.g. HASBLED, CHA2DS2-VASc,...) or include these calculators itself.
