The Importance of Genetic Testing for DCM
INVITAE, DCM Foundation
9/16/20, 9:00 PM
America/Chicago UTC -5
Description
In many cases, dilated cardiomyopathy has genetic causes and is hereditary. An individual with a genetic risk may be asymptomatic for several years until DCM presents in the advanced, life-threatening stage. Genetic testing can reveal if an individual has a predisposition to DCM, enabling management and appropriate monitoring.
The webinar will provide an in-depth look into:
-Genetic causes of DCM
-Importance and benefits of genetic testing for patients and family members
-Sponsored, no-charge genetic testing and counseling through Invitae
-The Invitae and DCM Foundation newly-launched Patient Insights Network (PIN), an online platform where individuals can take surveys, upload medical records, track health outcomes, and learn about the latest research and clinical trials.
-The role of genetic testing and its influence on advancements in clinical research
Please share the details of this webinar with individuals impacted by DCM and their families.
