“Create a three-generation medical family history genogram for familial hypercholesterolemia. Henry died in 1998 with coronary artery disease and hypercholesterolemia; Ruth, Michael, Susan, and Olivia have hypercholesterolemia. Michael and Laura have Olivia, born 1993, and Daniel, born 1996, unaffected. Mark Olivia as the index person.”
그 이면의 의사결정을 읽어 보세요.
Henry carries both coronary artery disease and hypercholesterolemia fills.
Michael and Susan show that the lipid condition is not isolated to one person.
Olivia is highlighted as the person seen in clinic.
Daniel has no condition fill in the recorded history.
Use this genogram when a lipid specialist is gathering a family history for possible inherited high cholesterol. Add laboratory values and genetic results outside the diagram when available.

Why is Olivia the index person?
She is the patient whose family history is being reviewed by the lipid clinic.
Does Daniel's empty symbol rule out familial hypercholesterolemia?
No. It only means the example records no diagnosis for Daniel.
