“…9 More recently, ACOG has stated that ECS is an acceptable strategy for carrier screening. 10 Despite the continued use and advancement of ECS, few studies [11][12][13] have looked at patient attitudes towards its use, and even fewer [14][15][16] have sought to identify patient factors or characteristics that may influence their decision to undergo ECS versus other more conventional screening options. In contrast, several studies have identified physician and other health care professional attitudes towards ECS.…”

Objective To examine factors that influence uptake of expanded carrier screening (ECS) among women undergoing preconception and prenatal genetic counseling. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 500 medical records from women with prenatal or preconception genetic counseling at a prenatal genetic counseling service. We tabulated acceptance of ECS by indication for genetic counseling along with demographic and pregnancy‐related factors. Results ECS was offered to 483 of 500 women, and 192 (39.8%) accepted. Of the 67 women counseled preconceptionally, 46 (68.7%) accepted ECS. This was significantly more than for 416 women counseled during pregnancy, of whom 146 (35.1%) accepted (P ≤ 0.001). For pregnant patients, the mean gestational age of those accepting ECS (12 weeks 3 days; n = 146) was significantly lower than those declining (13 weeks 4 days; n = 270; P ≤ 0.001). The acceptance rates were 7 of 12 (58.3%, P = 0.195) for Ashkenazi Jewish women, 12 of 41 (29.3%; P = 0.186) for Asian women, and 7 of 25 (28.0%; P = 0.241) for women of mixed ethnicity. Conclusions These results suggest that receiving genetic counseling prior to or earlier in the first trimester is associated with acceptance of ECS and support the importance of early genetic counseling about carrier screening options.

“…The study findings of several researchers, such as [56,57], show that families' mindsets towards screening mindset positively enhance attitudes toward genetic technology. Similarly, patient attitudes about genetic carriers support the adoption of screening [58]. The feasibility of telegenic counseling plays a meaningful role in developing policies [59,60].…”

In this quantitative study, the researcher examined the screening strategies used to establish Egyptian women entrepreneurs' attitudes toward genetic technology. Using a questionnaire, the researcher collected data from 318 Egyptian women entrepreneurs. From applying the path analysis through Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) version 26.0, this study’s findings demonstrate genomic knowledge’s positive effect on attitudes towards genetic technology (β = 0.176; p = 0.003). The path analysis shows that, on the one hand, the feasibility of screening procedures has a positive effect on attitudes toward genetic technology (β = 0.171; p = 0.000). On the other hand, this study’s findings show that societal and health system issues negatively and not statistically significantly affect attitudes toward genetic technology (β = -0.007; p = 0.556). In addition, this study’s findings help towards initiatives to improve genomic literacy through educational programs and in association with genetic experts. Moreover, this study’s conclusions foster community assignation and open discourse to generate a knowledgeable and supportive environment, ensuring that policies and practices align with women entrepreneurs' unique needs and concerns about genetic technology.
