The impact on genetics on disease is becoming a part of how we practice. If you watch television, you might have seen the advertisements for genetic testing and you often see people very excited about "finally" having detailed information about their heritage. I want to start a discussion on the pros and cons of genetic testing. By genetic testing, I do not mean heritage, but instead the effects of genetics on ones' health. Currently, patients can be tested for several issues, like hemophilia or sickle cell disease, but the horizon is full of possible testing, including looking at the risk of cancers and problems with the fetus. This is a personal opinion, and you can bring in resources if you like, but I'd like you to discuss genetic testing because, as a nurse, people will ask your opinion and you cannot give an honest response until you explore it.
