Medical team
Huntington’s disease
is a neurodegenerative disease with neurological and psychological symptoms.
Multidisciplinary medical care can improve the quality of life for Huntington patients. The
disease is dominantly inherited and DNA testing for the disease causing mutation is available. Huntington families
should have access to genetic counselling, and the possibility of
presymptomatic testing and prenatal diagnostics.
The Medical University of Poznań has started to provide care and services to Huntington patients and
their families since 2007. Since 2007 there is a permanent Multidisciplinary Huntington Team. Under the auspices of the Department of Social Medicine, the team constitutes a collaboration of several
departments, including Neurology, Psychology and Genetic Laboratory in IPiN Warsaw.
The purpose of the
Huntington Team is to provide a comprehensive program of medical services to Huntington patients,
their relatives and caretakers, as well as to serve as source of information
and experience for health professionals.
