Description Hyperlipidemia is one of the major risk factors for developing Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). Because most of the research on CHD has been done on males many questions exist concerning the cause and impact of CHD in women. This thesis is a content validation study for the instrument entitled Treatment of Hyperlipidemia in Postmenopausal Women (THPW). THPW was developed to examine how nurse practitioners are treating hyperlipidemia in postmenopausal women to determine if they are knowledgeable about, persuaded by, and adhering to national guidelines as a standard of care. Content validation of THPW includes item generation of the instrument and review of its contents through two groups of experts. This is the first tool to ascertain nurse practitioners' practice trends related to the prevention of CHD.
