Minimum criteria required for testing to be appropriate as stated in the Gene Dossier: Criteria Early onset hearing loss that is moderate or severe or profound AND no GJB2 or GJB6 mutations found Additional Information: For panel tests: A pro forma is required to be completed that is available from the laboratory website Tick if this patient meets criteria At risk family members where familial mutation is known do not require a full panel test but should be offered analysis of the known mutation If the sample does not fulfil the clinical criteria or you are not one of the specified types of referrer and you still feel that testing should be performed please contact the laboratory to discuss testing of the sample.
