Led by the South East Genomic Medicine Service in partnership with tech development by UBQO, QGenome aims to facilitate genomic testing of common conditions and rare diseases through an app-based clinical decision aid.

In June 2023, we have added information about prenatal genetic testing to QGenome.

What is QGenome?

QGenome is a FREE app offering NHS clinicians readily-accessible, evidence-based clinical guidance and a streamlined mechanism to instigate genomic investigations and onward referrals, where necessary.

What does QGenome offer?

QGenome:

• is a point of care tool for any healthcare professional or multidisciplinary team who needs guidance navigating the role of genomic testing at various stages of the patient pathway.
• enables busy clinicians to quickly distinguish between patients with sporadic disease and those with a potential genetic condition by highlighting the relevance of genomics at specific decision points in their patient’s management.
• is aligned to the NHS National Genomic Test Directory, with links to genomic test request forms, record of discussion forms, national guidelines and published literature.
• is a constantly expanding and evolving library which will walk clinicians through specialty areas such as cardiac, renal, cancer, prenatal and midwifery.

To download the app for free and get more information visit the QGenome website.

Can I get more information?

Absolutely! We’re very happy to chat to come and chat to your staff or departments about how QGenome could help your clinicians.

Just drop us a line at gst-tr.southeastgmsa@nhs.net

In the meantime, you can watch our recent chat with Cancer Alliances in the East (with thanks to East Genomics for sharing!)
