Abstract
This guideline covers identifying and managing familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH), a specific type of high cholesterol that runs in the family, in children, young people and adults. It aims to help identify people at increased risk of coronary heart disease as a result of having FH. In November 2017, we reviewed the evidence for case finding and diagnosis, identification using cascade testing, and management using statins. We amended recommendations in sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.
