The discoveries of the Human Genome Project (HGP), established in 1990 at the National Institutes of Health and the United States Department of Energy, are bringing important new technologies for genetic diagnosis and treatment to nearly all areas of health care delivery. Nurses, who play an integral role in supporting health consumers as they respond to health and illness, require up-to-date genetic knowledge for conducting clinical practice, engaging in nursing research, and educating a new generation of nurses.
1990年由美国国立卫生研究院和美国能源部设立的人类基因组计划(HGP)的各项发现,正在将重要的基因诊断和治疗新技术引入几乎所有的医疗保健领域。护士在帮助健康消费者应对健康与疾病问题方面发挥着不可或缺的作用,她们在开展临床实践、从事护理研究以及培养新一代护士时,都需要最新的遗传学知识。
