Care team study for families with high cholesterol
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a “reach everyone” approach in primary care clinics to improve care for people with familial hypercholesterolemia (families with very high cholesterol). It may help families get recognized sooner and get the right follow-up.

This trial is about helping families with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic condition that causes very high cholesterol) get screened. It tests a way to reach close relatives so they can learn their risk and consider next steps.
This study uses a 'cascade testing' approach, where family members of people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol, are tested to see if they also have it. The goal is to identify and test at-risk relatives early so they can get treatment to prevent heart problems.
This trial focuses on people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), an inherited condition that causes very high cholesterol. It aims to better understand and manage severe cholesterol problems that raise heart risk, especially in families.
This study aims to find and help people with very high cholesterol, which can run in families. If you or your child have high cholesterol, this study may help you understand your risk and get the right care.
This trial focuses on people referred to a cholesterol (lipid) clinic to help identify inherited high cholesterol. It tests an “interpretive comment” approach to nudge detection—meaning it may help clinicians recognize who is most likely to have familial hypercholesterolemia.
This study looks at children who may have inherited high cholesterol, especially when one parent is affected. It may help doctors detect the condition earlier and understand how it runs in families.
