ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Cascade testing can be highly effective in identifying individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and help prevent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The IMPACT-FH cascade testing program offered multiple optimized implementation strategies to improve FH cascade testing uptake.

OBJECTIVE:

Guided by the Conceptual Model of Implementation Research, this study assessed the IMPACT-FH cascade testing program's implementation outcomes.

METHODS:

Implementation outcomes were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. Interviews were conducted with 33 IMPACT-FH program participants including 15 probands, 12 relatives, and 6 healthcare professionals (HCPs). Transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis to investigate implementation outcomes. Descriptive statistics were analyzed for scaled implementation outcome measures asked after interviews.

RESULTS:

Participants described adopting strategies offered in the IMPACT-FH program because they presented an opportunity to pursue low-cost FH cascade testing. Participants identified barriers to feasibility including the complexity of disclosing an FH result and offering strategies on, inherent limitations of probands choosing strategies, confusion over testing costs, limitations sharing with relatives' clinicians, discomfort with chatbot technology, and concerns about the workload for HCPs. Participants evaluated the program positively regarding its appropriateness (Mean (M) = 4.70, Standard Deviation (SD) = 0.41), acceptability (M = 4.79, SD = 0.40), and feasibility (M = 4.24, SD = 0.53).

CONCLUSION:

The IMPACT-FH cascade testing program and its strategies were evaluated as valuable to adopt and highly appropriate, acceptable, and feasible by participants. Participants identified areas to enhance the program that could improve FH cascade testing uptake.
