Goal and Objectives
This MMWR provides recommendations regarding public health strategies for primary immunodeficiency (PI) diseases. These recommendations were prepared by CDC staff and other specialists in PI diseases after consultation with a multidisciplinary panel. The goal of this report is to familiarize readers with a public health framework for addressing health problems resulting from a group of primarily single-gene disorders. Upon completion of this continuing education activity, the reader should be able to describe 1) the four components of a public health framework; 2) how public health assessment can be applied to PI and other genetic diseases; 3) the framework for evaluating genetic tests, including analytic validity, clinical validity, clinical utility, and ethical, legal, and social considerations; 4) two public health interventions to increase early diagnosis and treatment for genetic diseases (i.e., newborn screening and early clinical recognition); and 5) the key components of an effective health education program for PI diseases.
To receive continuing education credit, please answer all of the following questions.
