To date, there are highly effective lipid-lowering drugs, the combination of which makes it possible to achieve the target level of LDL-C in most patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). However, the effectiveness of treatment of FH patients strongly depends on adherence to lipid-lowering therapy and to the healthy lifestyle, as well as the detection of the disease and the therapy prescription as early as possible, better in childhood. The aim of the study is to assess the impact of genetic testing and motivational counseling on the effectiveness of treatment and cascade screening in patients with FH.
There are several tasks of the study:
Condition | Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, 1, Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, 2, Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, 3, Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, 4, Hypercholesterolemia, Familial, 4, Autosomal Recessive, Familial Hypercholesterolemia With Hyperlipemia, Hypercholesterolemia, Autosomal Dominant, Type B, Hypercholesterolemia, Autosomal Dominant, Hypercholesterolemia, Autosomal Dominant, 3, Apolipoprotein B-100, Familial Defective, Genetic Testing, Motivational Interviewing, Therapeutic Adherence, Therapeutic Adherence and Compliance, Treatment Adherence, Medication Adherence, Treatment Adherence and Compliance, Patient Adherence, Compliance, Patient Compliance, Familial Hypercholesterolemia, Familial Hypercholesterolemia - Heterozygous, Adherence, Patient, Adherence, Medication, Adherence |
