We propose a Bayesian network model to make inferences and predictions about cardiovascular risk. Both the structure and the probability tables in the underlying model are built using a large dataset collected in Spain from annual work health assessments, with uncertainty characterized through posterior distributions. We illustrate its use for public health practice, policy and research purposes. A freely available version of the software is included in an Appendix.
