  1. Welcome to our pitch about a decision aid for couples in
  2. lower socioeconomic status groups with a risk of transferring a hereditary
  3. disorder.
  4. The reproductive decision can be a challenging and very emotional process when
  5. there is the possibility to transfer a hereditary disorder to future offspring.
  6. A decision aid which provides information about all available
  7. options of reproductive decisions can successfully decrease negative stress,
  8. uncertainty and worry
  9. both. In the short
  10. and long term.
  11. However,
  12. it was shown that the decision aid which
  13. so far is implemented by genetic specialists,
  14. does not reach couples in lower economic
  15. status groups
  16. which might lead to the long term emotional burden due to uninformed
  17. reproductive decision making.
  18. Here's our solution to close
  19. the gap
  20. in a new intervention.
  21. Other health care professionals will be included
  22. to increase the reach and accessibility.
  23. General practitioners will be new implementer
  24. because they are the first touch point of care
  25. and especially people in lower socio economic groups
  26. make use of their services.
  27. Also,
  28. midwives will be new implementer of the decision aid
  29. in their practices
  30. compared to general practitioners. The duration of appointments is longer
  31. and they're a child Bush consultation. Our already exists.
  32. Okay.
  33. The intervention will be disseminated in the region of mastery hovel and
  34. With the aim to integrate the decision aid
  35. as a standardized and easy to use tools
  36. and 67 selected general practitioner or midwifery practices to ensure that
  37. also people in lower socio economic groups can benefit from the informed
  38. decision making
