About

The Family Hypercholesterolemia remains poorly diagnosed disease with an outlet sometimes suboptimal care. However, the Family Hypercholesterolemia exposes patients concerned at increased cardiovascular risk.

The frequency of familial hypercholesterolemia in cardiologic is little studied and remains unknown, and there is little data on the profile of patients, diagnostic methods and management.

Main objectives:

• Establish a monitoring patients with hypercholesterolemia Family cardiology in France
• Characterize the Family hypercholesterolemia in cardiology, including assessing the frequency of the most severe forms, which are at higher cardiovascular risk.

Enrollment: 31 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• coronary patients
• who agreed to participate
• high LDL-c levels: * LDL-c> = 1.9g / l without lipid lowering treatment according to the diagnostic score of Family Hypercholesterolemia these coronary patients with LDL> 1.9g / l may possibly or probably be achieved Hypercholesterolemia Family.

or

* LDL-c> = 1.6g / l in lipid-lowering treatment, the reduction of LDL-c average expected under standard lipid-lowering therapy (statin alone) being 30-40% of these patients had therefore pretreatment levels greater than 2 g / l or greater than 2.5 g / l and may possibly or probably be achieved Family Hypercholesterolemia after the diagnostic score.

Exclusion criteria
