Content level: surface level content
Effect on client: reassures the client
Client relationship: clarifies and builds trust
Timing: may occur throughout the session
Reflects the client's point of view

Analytic validity - ANSWER ✔✔-how accurately and reliably the test measures genotype of interest
Clinical validity - ANSWER ✔✔-how consistently and accurately the test detects or predicts the final
outcome
I.e. if the test detects a mutation, how well can we predict the phenotype
Clinical utility - ANSWER ✔✔-how likely the test is to significantly improve outcome
Locus heterogeneity - ANSWER ✔✔-mutations in different genes can cause similar/identical phenotype
Allelic heterogeneity - ANSWER ✔✔-different mutations in the same gene can cause similar/identical
phenotype
Phenotypic heterogeneity - ANSWER ✔✔-different mutations within the same gene can cause very
different phenotypes
Robertsonian Translocation - ANSWER ✔✔-between two acrocentric chromosomes; both chroms lose p
arm and get stuck together
1:1,000 individuals are balanced rob trans carriers - most common chrom rearrangement
13q14q and 14q21q most common
33% theoretical risk of an abnormal gamete - empirical risk is different for different rob trans
Increased risk of trisomy of involved chroms
Increased risk of UPD if trisomy rescue occurs
Reciprocal Translocation - ANSWER ✔✔-breakage or recombination involving non-homologous
chromosomes
1:500 individuals are balanced carriers
At risk for multiple miscarriages and abnormal offspring

Generally about 11% risk for unbalanced segregation
Empiric data - ascertainment dependent
Previous unbalanced child: 20% RR
Previous multiple SABs: 3-4% RR
Pericentric Inversion - ANSWER ✔✔-Includes the centromere
Can produce both balanced and unbalanced
The longer the inversion segment, the increased chance of viable, but abnormal offspring
Paracentric Inversion - ANSWER ✔✔-Does not include centromere
Most result in non-viable offspring when recombination within the inversion occurs
Malformation - ANSWER ✔✔-structural differences that arise from a primary error (often genetic) in
morphogenesis or development
Usually occur in embryonic period; failure to form organ/tissue or incomplete or incorrect formation
Deformation - ANSWER ✔✔-an alteration in shape/structure of body part that formed normally - caused
by non-disruptive mechanical forces (external forces) ex: potter sequence d/t oligohydramnios
Ex: fetal movement restricted d/t twins/oligohydramnios
Disruption - ANSWER ✔✔-structural defect resulting from destruction of a body part that has
differentiated normally - ex: amniotic bands
Secondary defect that arises from an obstructive process, usually early in pregnancy
Usually sporadic with low RR
