Hemoglobinopathy screening in primary care in the Netherlands : exploring the problems and needs of patients and general practitioners
© 2022. The Author(s)..
The prevalence of hemoglobinopathies in The Netherlands is increasing due to migration. Hemoglobinopathies are severe hereditary diseases. An informed reproductive choice by at-risk couples, such as pre-implantation diagnosis or termination of affected pregnancies, can be made if carriers are detected prior to conception. Using a qualitative design, the needs and wishes of patients, carriers and general practitioners were evaluated regarding carrier detection of hemoglobinopathies in primary care practice. 30 semi-structured interviews were established with 10 general practitioners, 10 patients and 10 carriers. The interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using content analysis to identify recurring themes. Three themes were generated regarding carrier detection of hemoglobinopathies: (1) a need for more information about hemoglobinopathy, (2) a need for indications when to refer for analysis (carrier diagnostics) and (3) insight concerning organization and roles in care for hemoglobinopathy carriers and patients. These themes reflected a need to increase awareness of hemoglobinopathy, improve competences among general practitioners through better education and improvement of communication with patients and their unidentified family members. This study shows the scope of the problem and the critical need for action to improve informed reproductive decision making for the at-risk population.
