Protect Your Heart Health with Advanced CITED2 Genetic Testing
If you’re worried about inherited heart conditions or have a family history of atrial septal defects, you’re not alone. Many South Africans carry genetic variations that can affect heart health across generations. Our CITED2 Gene Atrial Septal Defect Type 8 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity and peace of mind you deserve, helping you make informed decisions about your family’s cardiovascular health.
Understanding Your CITED2 Genetic Test
The CITED2 gene plays a crucial role in heart development during pregnancy. When this gene contains specific mutations, it can lead to atrial septal defect type 8 – a congenital heart condition where there’s an abnormal opening between the heart’s upper chambers. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with exceptional precision, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your heart health.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Family history of congenital heart defects
- Unexplained heart murmurs or abnormalities
- Planning pregnancy with known family heart conditions
- Children with developmental heart concerns
- Multiple family members with similar cardiac issues
Early detection through genetic testing can guide appropriate monitoring and intervention strategies.
Why This Test Matters for Your Family’s Health
Understanding your genetic predisposition to atrial septal defects provides numerous benefits:
- Early Intervention: Detect potential issues before symptoms develop
- Family Planning: Make informed decisions about starting a family
- Peace of Mind: Reduce uncertainty about inherited heart conditions
- Personalised Care: Guide appropriate cardiac monitoring and care
- Generational Health: Protect your children and grandchildren’s heart health
Understanding Your Test Results
We understand that waiting for genetic test results can be anxiety-provoking. Our process includes comprehensive genetic counselling both before and after testing to ensure you fully understand your results. Your report will clearly indicate whether CITED2 gene mutations were detected and what this means for your health. Our genetic counsellors will walk you through every detail, answering your questions and providing guidance for next steps.
