ClinConnect Summary

The VICE-MPRINT trial is focused on understanding how genetic differences can affect how children and pregnant women respond to medications. This area of study, known as pharmacogenetics, is important for ensuring that treatments are safe and effective for everyone, particularly for groups like children and pregnant women who may be underrepresented in research. This trial aims to gather information about the knowledge and attitudes surrounding pharmacogenetic testing among diverse groups of children with chronic health conditions and pregnant women. Participants will watch an educational video about pharmacogenetic testing either when they receive their test results or later, and their understanding and feelings about the testing will be assessed before and after.

To be eligible for this study, pregnant women must be at least 18 years old, currently between 12 to 30 weeks of pregnancy, and receiving care at a specific clinic. They should also agree to share their medical information and receive the test results. For children, the trial includes those aged 0 to 16 with a chronic health condition, and parental consent is required. Participants will be asked to provide a DNA sample for testing, and everyone will complete surveys to share their thoughts and experiences. This research is crucial for improving how medications are prescribed and personalized for these specific groups.
