Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited disorder that significantly increases an individual's risk of developing premature cardiovascular disease (CVD). Early intervention involving lifestyle modification and medication is crucial in preventing CVD. Prior studies have shown that lipid-lowering therapy in children is safe and effective. Despite FH being a treatable and manageable condition, the condition is still underdiagnosed and undertreated. Universal lipid screening (ULS) in children has been recommended by some medical experts in the United States as a strategy to identify cases of FH and maximize the benefits of early invention. However, lipid screening is not routinely offered in pediatric clinics. This study aimed to explore parental experience with FH diagnosis in their children, identify key facilitators and barriers in children's diagnosis and care, and examine parental perspectives on ULS in children in the United States. A total of fourteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants recruited through the Family Heart Foundation. Thematic analysis identified three key themes: role of family history in facilitating child's FH diagnosis, barriers and challenges in post-diagnosis care, and attitudes towards ULS in children. All participants supported ULS in children and emphasized the value of early diagnosis and treatment for FH. However, a lack of guidance or referral after the child's diagnosis was a concern raised by many participants. This underscores the need for accessible and comprehensive care amid ongoing efforts to increase pediatric diagnosis of FH.
