Improving Familial Hypercholesterolemia Detection Through Implementation of Nurse-led Cascade Screening

20 Aug 2025

Abstract excerpt

Aims/Background Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder that leads to premature cardiovascular disease. Early detection and treatment are crucial for reducing morbidity and mortality. This study describes the development and impact of a nurse-led cascade screening service in Northern Ireland (NI). Methods A retrospective cross-sectional analysis and audit of data from 2010 to present was...
