Many diseases have their roots in our genetic makeup, making genetic counseling essential for guiding individuals and families towards effective solutions promptly.
Identifying or confirming genetic variations associated with cardiovascular diseases like structural heart defects, arrhythmias, and cardiomyopathies.
Providing insights into disease progression and suitable treatment options based on genetic profiles.
Assessing the likelihood of developing cardiovascular diseases among family members.
Informing prospective parents about the risks and options concerning their future children.
Hereditary cardiovascular diseases stem from harmful genetic variations (variants) passed down from one generation to the next. While some conditions may result from mutations in a single gene, others involve complex interactions between multiple genes and environmental factors. These diseases include structural heart defects, arrhythmias, and cardiomyopathies, which can progress silently and, in severe cases, lead to sudden cardiac death.
In developed countries, sudden cardiac deaths account for 20% of all deaths, with over 50% of these cases linked to hereditary arrhythmias. Timely detection of hereditary cardiovascular diseases significantly reduces the risk of disease development and helps prevent sudden cardiac death. Early identification of genetic changes enables proactive measures such as regular medical check-ups, lifestyle modifications, preventive treatments, and, when necessary, surgical interventions.
Genetic testing involves analyzing DNA to identify specific genetic variations associated with cardiovascular diseases. This process helps in early diagnosis, risk prediction, and proactive management strategies.
Confirming suspicions of hereditary cardiovascular diseases.
Tailoring treatment plans based on genetic insights.
Identifying family members at risk of inheriting genetic variations.
Providing information to prospective parents about the risks and options for their future children.
