  • PERSONAL ASSESSMENT INCLUDING FAMILIAL RISK ANALYSIS FOR PERSONALIZED DISEASE PREVENTION PLAN
    Publication number: 20140343964
    Abstract: Family health history information can be used to assess familial risk for common diseases and determine early detection and prevention medical strategies. Assessed familial risk of disease can then be used to determine recommendations for disease prevention and screening that are targeted to familial risk. Other factors can be included to generate personalized disease prevention recommendations. For example, personal health history information, personal health behavior information, or both can be collected and assessed to generate personalized disease prevention recommendations based on the information collected. Recommendations for disease prevention and screening based at least on familial risk can be used to provide a personalized disease prevention plan that encourages a person to make behavior changes that will reduce the risk of disease and utilize preventive health services.
