3 OpeningStatements LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) are independent rsik factors for early development and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) Apheresis is an effective treatment option in patients where LDL-C / Lp(a) cannot be adequately lowered by life style changes, diet and medication alone

4 Treatment Options LDL-hypercholesterolemia Life style changes Diet Physical activity Medication Statins Cholesterin absorption inhibitors Bile acid sequestrants Nicotinic acid analogues Apheresis (Liver transplantation) HLp(a) Medication Nicotinic acid analogues Apheresis

7 What is the best way to identify dyslipidemic high-risk CVD patients??? Standard procedures: Routine lab (TC, LDL-C, Lp(a)) FH scores (*DLCN, *SB, *MEDPED criteria) Genetic testing Clinical diagnoses / procedures (ICD coding; OPS coding) Premature CVD Progressive CVD CVD risk scores *DLCN = Dutch Lipid Clinic Network; SB = Simon Broome; MEDPED = Make early diagnosis, prevent early disease

8 MEDPED and Simon Broome Criteria for the Identification of FH* Patients FH* = familial Hypercholesterolemia

21 Difficulties in identifying dyslipidemic high-risk CVD individuals??? LDL-C no real disease burden Neither for patients nor for physicians GP s see responsibilty at cardiologists / angiologists site Cardiologists prefer apparative diagnostics and therapies Lp(a) nobody cares Heterogeneity of Lp(a) more thrombogenic than atherogenic? Genetic testing still too expensive Appr LDL-R mutations; many mild mutations clinical relevance? Identical PCSK9 GOF mutations variation in LDL-C levels clinical relevance? Other than standard mutations (LDL-R, ApoB, PCSK9) involved Synergistic action of multiple risk factors / co-morbidities Too complex (time-consuming) during clinical routine work

22 Without systematic screening activities matching laboratory results (including genetics) with clinical findings many high-risk patients remain unidentified who could certainly benefit from better treatment!

23 Effective screening programs must be easy to handle for patients and medical staff time efficient unexpensive suitable for electronic (web based) documentation

24 S-crea MAU Cardiometabolic and Renal Risk Assessment (Simple, time-efficient, inexpensive) KISS (Keep It Simple Screening) program: Gender, age Family history (simple questionnaire) Patient s history (simple questionnaire) Smoking status (current smoker or smoking for more than 5 yrs) Medication Height, weight, hip and waist circumference Blood pressure Glucose, HbA1c S-creatinine,GFR, microalbuminuria TC, LDL-C, TG, Lp(a) (Uric acid), (hs-crp) The missing links Renal function Lp(a) MAU = microalbuminuria

25 Whom to screen? Cost-benefit ratio of screening procedures Any adult? Average annual patient numbers: GP practice 3,000 6,000 Cardiology practice 4,000 6,000 Average screening costs Does not include project development costs, technical maintenance, service and analyzing procedures Time for explanation and examination, lab, documentation Estimated costs per patient ~ 15 25

26 Pre-selection for KISS: - - Patients with very high LDL-C levels (Lp(a) usually not measured) - Patients with premature CVD

27 Lab Screening Patients with hichol Top Convert and analyze lab database Find hichol patients and contact them via central lab / practice Down CVD status by KISS Optimize LLT Patients with hichol AND premature CVD?

28 Lab data from Rostock + Greater Rostock* Total population covered: appr. 410,000 inhabitants Evaluation period: 2009, 2010, 1011, 2012, 2013 Data source: encrypted data from all subjects with lab results during the above period requested by more than 500 medical institutions (mainly private practices; 1 hospital) *Source: Pseudonymized data from Medical Laboratory Rostock

29 Rostock and Greater Rostock (ca. 360,000 adults) Individuals with TC > 8.5 (330) / 6.5 (250) Appr % of individuals without parallel LDL-C measurements Appr. 30% of individuals without parallel TG measurements TC: total cholesterol, LDL-C: LDL-cholesterol, TG: triglycerides

30 Rostock and Greater Rostock (ca. 360,000 adults) Individuals with TC > 8,0 (310) AND TG <4 (350)
