Abstract

ABSTRACT Advances in genomics research and clinical applications continue to accelerate. Coupled with the availability of direct-to-consumer (DTC) marketing of genetic testing and new discoveries, patients are increasingly coming into primary care with genomic questions. This article offers a snapshot of the kinds of questions patients are asking and that providers should be prepared to discuss such as what to do with DTC results or whether pharmacogenetics testing would help make sure "the right" medication is prescribed. Clinicians should understand the value of clinical guidelines (and where to find them), how to find a genetic specialist, what's happening with gene editing (to include gene sequencing), what's on the horizon in cancer care, and what the future might hold.

2022年基因组学更新：临床医生和患者热门话题。

基因组学研究和临床应用的进展不断加快。再加上基因检测和新发现的直接面向消费者（DTC）营销的可用性，越来越多的患者带着基因组问题进入初级保健。这篇文章简要介绍了患者提出的各种问题，提供者应该准备好讨论，例如如何处理DTC结果，或者药物遗传学测试是否有助于确保开出“正确”的药物。临床医生应该了解临床指南的价值（以及在哪里找到它们），如何找到遗传专家，基因编辑（包括基因测序）发生了什么，癌症护理的前景如何，以及未来可能会如何。

期刊介绍： The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
