Abstract:With the rapid development of research in molecular pathogenic mechanism for deafness and molecular bio-logical techniques, clinical genetic testing and prenatal diagnosis have become hotspots in otology. There is an urgent need to promote the application of relevant knowledge and techniques in the clinic nationwide. We have, therefore, conducted seven national-level continuing medical education (CME) projects and five provincial-level CME projects in the past seven years on an annual basis. Hundreds of ENT doctors, technicians and officials from more than 100 hospitals, family planning agencies, maternity and child care institutions have attended the courses and laboratory training sessions in these projects, which has played great roles in promoting genetic testing for deafness in China.
