Overview

Comprehensive genetic analysis of your risk of Malignant Hyperthermia

Malignant hyperthermia can cause sudden death when a person is exposed to certain types of anesthesia, such as anesthesia commonly used during surgery.

Death from Malignant Hyperthermia is entirely preventable as long as the anesthesiologist knows the person is at risk before the person is given anesthesia.

This app empowers you with a straightforward analysis of genes known to be associated with Malignant Hyperthermia or Central Core Disease (a condition similar to Malignant Hyperthermia). You'll receive a genetic report that includes the results of the analysis as well as actionable information you can use to help protect your wellness and longevity.

Getting Started

This app is compatible with most DNA tests including 23andMe, AncestryDNA, and MyHeritage.

Simply upload your DNA data to use this app. If you haven't yet taken a DNA test, order one of our DNA tests.

Once your DNA data is stored in your Sequencing.com account, click the app's 'Start' button. You'll receive your results in about 15 minutes.

While this DNA analysis app can analyze data from many different types of genetic tests, it is important to take into consideration that the data from some types of genetic tests may not provide a complete assessment of your genetic risk of malignant hyperthermia. For example, if your DNA data is from a genotyping genetic test, which is the type of testing used by 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, FamilyTreeDNA, and Living DNA, then the analysis of your DNA data and the report provided by this app may not give you a complete understanding of your genetic risk of malignant hyperthermia, especially if malignant hyperthermia runs in your family.

If you think you may be at higher risk for malignant hyperthermia, it is best to work with a doctor or genetic counselor who can assess your risk, interpret your results, and build an action plan.
