GFRA1 Gene Central Hypoventilation Syndrome: Symptoms, Diagnosis and Congenital NGS Genetic Test Cost at DNA Labs India
Central hypoventilation syndrome (CHS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s ability to breathe properly during sleep. CHS is caused by a mutation in the GFRA1 gene, which plays a critical role in the development of the nervous system. In this blog, we will discuss the symptoms, diagnosis, and cost of the congenital NGS Genetic Test for CHS at DNA Labs India.
Symptoms of CHS
The symptoms of CHS can vary from person to person, but the most common symptoms include:
- Difficulty breathing during sleep
- Daytime sleepiness and fatigue
- Frequent waking during the night
- Difficulty staying asleep
- Slow development of speech and language skills
- Poor growth and weight gain
These symptoms may be present at birth or may develop later in childhood. CHS can also cause a decrease in the body’s response to high levels of carbon dioxide, which can lead to a decrease in respiratory drive and a build-up of carbon dioxide in the blood.
Diagnosis of CHS
CHS is diagnosed through a combination of clinical evaluation and genetic testing. A doctor will perform a physical exam and take a detailed medical history to look for signs of CHS. They may also perform a sleep study to monitor the patient’s breathing during sleep.
If CHS is suspected, a genetic test may be ordered to confirm the diagnosis. The GFRA1 gene can be sequenced using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that may be causing CHS.
