Advancing the Use of Family Health History Scottsdale Institute Fall Conference 2010 Salt Lake City, Utah
Best Genetic Test Family history remains the best and least expensive genetic ‘test’ currently available for clinical use. A major effort will entail developing ways to obtain this information – In a standardized format, Store it in the EHR, Apply risk assessment, and Develop messages to clinicians that may alter patient care based on the information obtained.
Most Family History Stored as a Clinical Note • “FAMILY HISTORY: positive for diabetes, end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis in her father and mother, and multiple siblings have a history of coronary artery disease.” • “… No history of lung cancer. His daughter has diabetes. No history of coronary artery disease.” • “…father died at age 40 of sudden cardiac death from myocardial infarction. Mother died at age 56 with MI. He notes that 15 people have died of coronary artery disease in the last three generations of his family. Diabetes type II in multiple members of the family. Denies cancer, seizures, or hyperlipidemia.”
Clinical Barriers with Family History Primary care physicians consider family history issues only about half of the time in new patient visits, and only about 22% of the time in established patient visits. The two primary reasons cited for this failure are time limitations within the context of an office visit, and lack of appropriate training to collect and analyze a clinically useful family health history.

Personalized Medicine Use Case Scientists find genes that could predict Type 2 diabetesInternational scientists identified five different genetic variations tied to adult-onset diabetes and believed to be responsible for 70% of the genetic risk for the diabetes, also known as Type 2. One of the lead scientists says the findings "mean we can create a good genetic test to predict people's risk of developing this type of diabetes.“ • Family history risk assessment • Order genetic test • Test interpretation • Store results (family health history, sequence data, alleles, exons, SNP’s also called variations or mutations) • Clinical decision support • Pharmacogenomics for targeted drugs
Family Health History Datamart • Consolidate family history data from all electronic sources in the healthcare system • Update current electronic forms to fix inadequacies • Use data-mining tools to extract text-based family history entered into clinical notes • Prepare data to be used by clinical decision support systems • Prepare data for analysis and studies in the area of genetics and genomics, combining it with other clinical data
