Lipid Clinics Network targets suboptimal guideline implementation

The European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) continues to respond to the needs of the global community and address issues in dyslipidaemia management. The first of several ‘linked-up’ EAS initiatives is the Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Studies Collaboration (FHSC) registry, launched in 2015, which aimed to address the inadequacy of FH detection and care across the globe [1]. This was followed one year later by EAS support for the initiation of the Homozygous Fam ilial Hypercholesterolaemia International Clinical Collaboration (HICC) registry, which created an international network of healthcare providers involved in the management of this severe condition.
