Abstract:
Background: Family health history (FHH) is central to human genomic profiling construction; however, there is no protocol for documenting FHH in a pedigree format in Vietnam.Aim: A "Gia Su Suc Khoe" (GSSK) tool was developed to create a user-friendly interface for collecting FHH and offering diseases' risk assessment.Results: A tool was described (https://giasusuckhoe.vn/) with good feedback from genetic counselors and family-medicine doctors. Among 20 surveys, 100% of respondents noted that the report accurately reflected their FHH and were satisfied with the tool's display. About 74% of familial conditions were covered. Overall, all constructive feedback has been adapted into the updated version.Conclusion: Gia Su Suc Khoe has the potential to significantly improve healthcare delivery and outcomes in Vietnam.
