Diagnosis Through Whole Genome Sequencing and Care Utilization in Children With Severe Illness.
Genetic testing identified serious conditions in critically ill children, helping clinicians better plan and manage their complex ongoing care needs.
This PubMed record reports a multicenter cohort study on Diagnosis Through Whole Genome Sequencing and Care Utilization in Children With Severe Illness. The authors report that these findings suggest that while longitudinal health care utilization remains intensive following a genetic diagnosis, identifying these conditions is important for accurately mapping and managing the downstream clinical resource requirements of this population.
