Cited in Scopus: 13As exome and genome sequencing become more widely incorporated into clinical pediatric care, it becomes increasingly important to encourage a robust engagement process with the mature older child and adolescent patient to facilitate meaningful conversation that can aid in the complex decision-making and return of findings process around genomic testing. A dialogue that promotes this engagement process is best attained when the clinician shares salient information, including the relatively distinct implications of the test, while listening and responding to the child’s evolving perspectives as well as the parent(s)’ concerns (“parent” used broadly throughout to include guardians and others who act in this capacity for the genetics encounter).
