| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The postmortem genetic testing to unexpected sudden deaths in infant is becoming popular to deduce the cause of death, in which inheritable disorders such as arrythmia and impaired fatty acid metabolism are subjects of investigation. In this study, we detected two critical nucleotide substitutions for fatal disorders among 19 examined cases. In addition to diagnosis, care for family members should be necessary in the genome analysis. In the present examined cases, genetic counseling including grief care was performed to parents in cooperation with genetic counselors and clinical doctors. We think a new system to take care of family members has been developed by the multidisciplinary approach including various stuffs in hospital.
