Aims of this session
• To give General Practice Nurses an overview of how
Genetics and Genomics fits into their Practice
• To describe the underpinning core genetic concepts
• To demonstrate the inheritance patterns of some
common conditions seen in primary care
• To discuss referral pathways

Why do I need to think about Genetics? The Practice
Nurses Role
• Supporting patients who are anxious about the
inheritable nature of their condition
• Information giving -modes of inheritance, genetic
referral process
• Awareness and referral on to medical staff
• Genetics in common long term conditions

1 in 10 patients seen in primary
care has a disorder with a genetic

General clues
• Multiple closely related people with the same
condition
• Disorders which occur at a younger age than usual
(e.g. colon cancer, breast cancer, dementia)
• Sudden cardiac deaths in people who seemed
healthy
• Three or more pregnancy losses
• Medical problems in children of parents related by
blood
• Congenital anomalies, dysmorphic features and
developmental delay

How it works –e.g.Cystic Fibrosis
Normal-CTFR gene codes for CFP embedded
in cell membrane. Involved in transport of
salt and H2O in glands that produce mucous.
e.g. Lungs, nose, pancreas or sweat
H2O & NaCl
Altered CTFR gene. CFP not functioning
leading to reduced transportation of salt
and water and sticky mucous

Common Conditions seen in Primary Care
• Familial Hypercholesteroleamia – Autosomal
Dominant
• Cystic Fibrosis –Autosomal Recessive
• Breast Cancer –Sporadic or can be single gene
BRCA1/2 Autosomal Dominant
• Heart Disease-Multifactorial
• Diabetes-Multifactorial or MODY Autosomal
Dominant

Collecting appropriate information
• Establish biological relationships in the family
• Clarify the medical conditions that people in the
family have

General questions to gain a quick
overview of a genetic family history
Do you have any concerns about diseases or
conditions that seem to run on either your or your
partner’s side of the family?
Does anyone have a major medical, physical or
mental health problem?
Has anyone ever needed treatment in hospital?

What information should you collect?
•Information depends on the context and reason for
collecting it:
•Establish biological relationships
•Clarify the medical conditions that people have
•3 generations
•For each person:
•Full name
•Date of birth (or age)
•Date of death (or age died)
•Medical information (age at diagnosis)

• Reassure
– Knowledge of the condition
– Local/national referral guidelines
• Refer
– To the GP or clinical genetics service
• Seek further advice
– Trusted sources of information

Consider the following scenarios how
would you respond?
• A mother is seeing you with her 10 year old son for
lifestyle advice as he has a high BMI. The mother has
read in the paper that there is a company that tests
DNA for obesity genes and brings the article to ask
for advice on whether to get her Son tested.
• A woman attending for cervical smear is worried
because her Aunt has been diagnosed with breast
cancer and her Grandmother also had breast cancer,
she wants to know if she could have a mammogram,
she is aged 42.

• One of the patients that you see regularly for
hypertension management is worried that they
might develop dementia as their father and maternal
grandmother have both developed it in their 80s.
• During an immunisation clinic a family asks you to
help explain a letter they have received from the
regional genetics centre. The baby has an autosomal
recessive condition and even though the letter
explains this the family are still uncertain about what
it means
