About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Medical Family History: Tools For Your Practice".
This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Medical family history as a tool that healthcare providers use to assess a persons risk of developing certain diseases or conditions.
Medical Family History involves gathering information about the health history of a persons immediate and extended family members, including parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
By looking at patterns of illness within a family, healthcare providers can identify potential genetic factors that may increase a persons risk of developing certain conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, or genetic disorders. This information can be used to inform medical decision-making, such as determining which screening tests a person may need or which preventative measures should be taken.
Additionally, medical family history can help identify potential environmental or lifestyle factors that may be contributing to a persons health risks. For example, if multiple family members have a history of lung cancer and also smoked cigarettes, this may indicate that smoking is a significant risk factor for that family.

Slide 3-

Why Family History? Single-gene disorders: Knowledge of family history can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of rare single-gene disorders such as cystic fibrosis, fragile X syndrome, Huntington disease, or familial hypercholesterolemia. Common, complex diseases: Family history has been shown to be a major risk factor for many chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, mental illness, and asthma. Family history may be the primary risk factor!

COLLECTION INTERPRETATION INTERVENTION
Slide 6-

Collection 1) Recognize, understand, and use standard pedigree symbols Bennett, et al. (1995). Recommendations for standardized human pedigree nomenclature. Am J Hum Genet, 56(3), 745-52.
Slide 7-

2) Produce at least a three-generation pedigree that includes: Collection Identification of the patient Identify the patient, or consultand, with an arrow
Slide 8-

Collection Identification of the proband: The proband is the affected individual who brings the family to medical attention (A consultand is often also a proband)
Slide 9-

Collection When the proband is not the consultand: In this case, the patient’s sister is the first person to bring the family to medical attention.
Slide 10-

2) Produce at least a three-generation pedigree that includes: Collection Patient’s first-, second-, and third-degree relatives Information on maternal and paternal relatives Representation of “full” from “half” relationships example: children with same or different partner Affected and unaffected relatives

Interpretation Family history of known or suspected genetic condition Multiple affected family members with same or related disorders Earlier age at onset of disease than expected Developmental delays or mental retardation 2) Recognize Genetic Red Flags: Do you think a condition present in a family may be genetic? Look for these clues:
Slide 38-

Interpretation Diagnosis in less-often-affected sex Multifocal or bilateral occurrence in paired organs One or more major malformations Disease in the absence of risk factors or after preventive measures 2) Recognize Genetic Red Flags (cont.): Do you think a condition present in a family may be genetic? Look for these clues:
Slide 39-

Interpretation Abnormalities in growth (growth retardation, asymmetric growth, excessive growth Recurrent pregnancy losses (2+) Consanguinity (blood relationship of parents) Ethnic predisposition to certain genetic disorders 2) Recognize Genetic Red Flags (cont.): Do you think a condition present in a family may be genetic? Look for these clues:
Slide 40-

Pedigrees Interpretation Pedigree: uses standard symbols and terminology to represent a large amount of information in a diagram Preferred method of organizing and displaying family history Benefits: organize a great deal of information visualize inheritance patterns and familial clustering
Slide 41-

Pedigrees or Checklists? Interpretation Crucial element: THE INFORMATION! The method used must: be reasonably accurate be updated easily allow for pattern detection and interpretation provide clear communication between healthcare providers Genetics and Common Disorders: Implications for Primary Care and Public Health Providers. National Coalition of Health Providers Education in Genetics. April 2005.
Slide 42-

Interpretation Educational opportunities Eliciting and summarizing family history information can: help the patient understand the condition in question clarify patient misconceptions help the patient recognize the inheritance pattern of the disorder demonstrate variation in disease expression (such as different ages at onset) provide a visual reminder of who in the family is at risk for the condition emphasize the need to obtain medical documentation on affected family members Bennett, R.L. (1999). The Practical Guide to the Genetic Family History. New York: Wiley-Liss.

Baby Maria’s Family Maria (one month old) was born with a cleft lip and palate (CL/P). CL/P is commonly isolated, but can also be a part of a number of different inherited syndromes.
Slide 68-

Determine recurrence risk for future children Baby Maria’s Family Better management of associated health problems Identify whether features are present in other family members that are suggestive of a syndrome If features are present, identify an inheritance pattern How can taking Maria’s family history help assess whether her CL/P is isolated or syndromic? Why is this helpful?
Slide 69-

Baby Maria’s Family Do you think that there is a low, moderate, or high chance that Maria’s cleft lip and palate is due to an inherited condition? How did you assess this chance?
Slide 70-

Baby Maria’s Family Isolated Cleft Lip and/or Palate: 1 in 1000 births (0.1%) Recurrence risks Maria’s sibling: 2%-8% Maria’s child: 4%-6%

Slide 73-

Factors decreasing risk of inherited syndrome in first scenario Presence of non-specific health conditions common in the general population Features on both maternal and paternal sides No clear inheritance pattern or family clustering Factors increasing risk of inherited syndrome in second scenario Clustering of potentially related features Several genetic red flags are present Clear autosomal dominant inheritance Baby Maria’s Family
Slide 74-

Utility of family history tools: Collection Specifically ask about features that are often seen in syndromes associated with CL/P Interpretation Consider red flags: multiple affected family members, early age at onset, developmental delays, one or more major malformation Implementation Presence of a syndrome can alter recurrence risks and health management for the patient and family members Baby Maria’s Family

Anne and Geoff Anne and Geoff want to start a family. Following ACOG guidelines, Anne’s physician makes cystic fibrosis (CF) carrier screening available to all her patients, and recommends screening to her patients who are Northern European (including Ashkenazi Jewish) or who have a family history of CF. American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, American College of Medical Genetics. Preconception and prenatal carrier screening for cystic fibrosis: clinical and laboratory guidelines. Washington, DC: ACOG; Bethesda (MD): ACMG; 2001.
Slide 76-

Identify whether CF is present in the family Determine whether Anne or Geoff are of ancestries for which CF carrier screening is recommended 3) Identify other family members who may consider carrier testing Anne and Geoff How can Anne and Geoff’s family histories help the physician decide whether to recommend CF carrier testing or simply make it available to Anne and Geoff?
Slide 77-

Anne and Geoff Cystic Fibrosis: Multisystem disease Pulmonary: accumulation of mucus Digestive: malnutrition and constipation Reproductive: bilateral absence of vas deferens (infertility) Inheritance: autosomal recessive Average life span: young adulthood
