Analysis and solution to the coguition of deaf children parients on gene tests

Objective To investigate the understanding and attitude in parents of children undergoing cochlear implantation toward genetic testing for deafness, and to determine effective tactics that may guide the application of this new test. Method Fifty patients of deaf children undergoing cochlear implantation were inquired using a questionnaire, which included questions regarding the parent ’ s understanding of deafness gene testing and its significance and if they were willing to accept the testing. Result All the 50 parents accepted the inquiry, and answered all the questions in the questionnaire. Of these parents, 70% trusted the results of the testing, 64% showed great interest in the testing, 60% wanted to learn more about the testing, and 48% were not very clear about the testing or its significance. Conclusion The parents ’ understanding and attitude towards genetic testing plays an important role in the success of genetic consulting for deafness, which is a new approach to genetic hearing loss in otology as a part of translational medicine. In order to promote successful application of genetic testing, the nurse in charge needs to come up with individualized consulting plans based on actual conditions of each particular patient and the parents.
