Putting research into practice requires meticulous work at all stages, from first identifying issues in current practice to testing new interventions and eventually preparing for implementation. The work that the SPCR has funded has helped to deliver real-world improvements that are changing patients’ lives. One such example of this is the FAMCAT2 algorithm for identifying patients with the highest probability of having familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH), a genetic condition that causes high cholesterol levels from birth and premature heart disease.
