Background: Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) warrants early diagnosis to prevent premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, underdiagnosis and undertreatment of FH persist. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and practice of FH care among general practitioners (GPs) in the Netherlands. Methods: An internationally standardised, online questionnaire was sent to Dutch GPs between February 2021 and July 2022. The survey assessed knowledge and awareness of FH, encompassing general familiarity, awareness of management guidelines, inheritance, prevalence, CVD risk, and clinical practice related to FH. Comparative analysis was performed using data on primary care physicians from Western Australia, the Asia-Pacific region and the United Kingdom. Results: Of the 221 participating GPs, 62.4% rated their familiarity with FH as above average (score > 4 on a 1–7 scale), with 91.4% considering themselves familiar with FH treatment and referral guidelines. Correct identification of the FH definition, typical lipid profile, inheritance pattern, prevalence and CVD risk was reported by 83.7%, 87.8%, 55.7%, 19.5%, and 13.6% of the respondents, respectively. Of the participants, 58.4% answered fewer than half of the 8 knowledge questions correctly. Dutch GPs reported greater FH familiarity and guideline awareness compared with their international counterparts but exhibited similar low performance on FH knowledge questions. Conclusion: Despite the Netherlands’ relatively high FH detection rate, substantial knowledge gaps regarding FH persist among Dutch GPs, mirroring global trends. Enhanced FH education and awareness in primary care are imperative to improve FH detection and ensure adequate treatment. Targeting the global suboptimal understanding of FH might require international efforts.
