Genetics represents an invaluable working tool in the pediatric area, from the moment of conception to the prevention and treatment of hereditary diseases. Get up to speed with this intensive course"

If we were to quantify the impact of genetic diseases at all ages of life we would see that: in 50% of first trimester abortions a chromosomal alteration is found; 2-3% of newborns have a congenital anomaly and, of these, at least 50% have a genetic origin; in developed countries, they are responsible for 20-30% of pediatric hospital admissions and 40-50% of infant mortality. Genetics in pediatrics plays a fundamental role and, therefore, we have proposed in this module to offer a detailed and comprehensive approach to the most common diseases in this area, as well as to teach the different tools that currently exist to provide diagnostic assistance, such as dysmorphology, its management, usefulness and limitations. Besides, we will deepen in the different existing and developing algorithms for the selection of diagnostic techniques in pediatrics at the genetic level.
