PHARMACOGENETICS

What is Pharmacogenetics?

"Pharmacogenetics(PGx) is the relationship between a patient's unique genetic makeup and their response to certain medications.  Genetic mutations can cause either higher or lower rates of metabolism for known drugs. According to the FDA, each year, approximately 4.5 million Americans visit their doctors or the emergency room due to adverse drug reactions. "

How Will Pharmacogenetics Benefit My Patients?

Our lab partners will offer a comprehensive record based totally on a person affected a person's genetic make-up with a view to suggesting metabolic rates for described medicinal drugs. This information will help physicians prescribe the proper drug on the right dose based on their patients DNA profile.

CANCER GENOMICS

What Is Cancer Genomics?

The study of cancer genomes has revealed abnormalities in genes which prone the development and growth of many types of cancer.

This understanding has improved our knowledge of the biology of most cancers and brought about new methods of diagnosing and treating the disease.

How Will Cancer Genomics Benefit My Patients?

Early diagnosis is the key to treating potentially serious conditions. The earlier a patient begins treatment the greater the chances of full recovery. Our Genetic Counselors are trained to guide your patient through the emotional, psychological, and social consequences. This also enables the clinician to determine disease aggressiveness, therefore facilitating a more informed treatment plan.

RESPIRATORY PANEL

Upper Respiratory Tract

Infection

An estimated 55% of antibiotic prescriptions for Acute Respiratory Tract Infections are unnecessary. The misuse of antibiotics costs the US healthcare system over $20 billion each year.

Estimated economic impact of non-influenza related URTIs is $40 Billion annually in the US.

Adults average 2-5 upper respiratory tract infections each year while children average 7-10 upper respiratory tract infections a year.

The respiratory panel pathogens target 17 viral pathogens and 4 bacterial pathogens. This test targets the pathogens RNA's and DNA's. Since an infected person shows the same symptoms for most of these pathogens, the respiratory panel pathogens will provide a more accurate information to clinicians to treat your patients.

GENETIC TESTING

Genetic testing is a type of medical test that identifies changes in chromosomes, genes, or proteins. The results of a genetic test can confirm or rule out a suspected genetic condition or help determine a person’s chance of developing or passing on a genetic disorder. More than 1,000 genetic tests are currently in use, and more are being developed.

Several methods can be used for genetic testing:

  • Molecular genetic tests (or gene tests) study single genes or short lengths of DNA to identify variations or mutations that lead to a genetic disorder.
  • Chromosomal genetic tests analyze whole chromosomes or long lengths of DNA to see if there are large genetic changes, such as an extra copy of a chromosome, that cause a genetic condition.
  • Biochemical genetic tests study the amount or activity level of proteins; abnormalities in either can indicate changes to the DNA that result in a genetic disorder.

Genetic testing is voluntary. Because testing has benefits as well as limitations and risks, the decision about whether to be tested is a personal and complex one. A geneticist or genetic counselor can help by providing information about the pros and cons of the test and discussing the social and emotional aspects of testing.
