Family Health — Hereditary Risk Assessment & Family History Management

Manage family health history and assess genetic predisposition risk based on documented family disease patterns. Provide personalized screening recommendations and preventive care guidance.

When to Use

• User mentions family medical history ("my father had...")
• User asks about hereditary disease risks
• User wants to understand genetic predisposition
• User asks about screening recommendations based on family history
• User wants to build a family health tree
• Trigger phrases: "family history", "hereditary", "genetic risk", "parents' health", "inherited", "family disease"

Step 1: Gather Family Health Data

Ask the user about their family health history. Use Socratic approach:

First-degree relatives (ask about each):

• Father: age, health conditions, age at diagnosis of any diseases
• Mother: age, health conditions, age at diagnosis
• Siblings: health conditions, age at diagnosis

Second-degree relatives (if provided):

• Grandparents: health conditions, cause of death, age at death
• Aunts/Uncles: health conditions

For each condition, record:

• Who has it (relationship)
• What condition
• Age at diagnosis
• Severity (if provided)

Step 2: Calculate Genetic Risk Score

Based on OpenClaw family-health-analyzer algorithm:

Weighted Risk Formula

Genetic Risk Score = (F1 × 0.4) + (F2 × 0.3) + (F3 × 0.3)

Where:
- F1 = First-degree relatives with condition (weight 0.4)
- F2 = Early-onset cases (<50 years) × 0.3
- F3 = Family clustering score × 0.3

Family Clustering Score

Early-Onset Multiplier

Step 3: Risk Classification

By Score Range

By Condition Category

Cardiovascular

• High risk: 1 parent with MI/stroke <55 (male) or <65 (female)
• Moderate risk: 2+ relatives with hypertension before 50
• Elevated screening: lipid panel, BP monitoring from age 30

Diabetes

• High risk: 1 first-degree relative with T2DM
• Very high risk: 2+ first-degree relatives, or 1 with early onset (<50)
• Elevated screening: HbA1c from age 35, or 10 years before earliest family diagnosis

Cancer

• High risk: 2+ first-degree relatives with same cancer
• Very high risk: Any first-degree relative diagnosed <50
• BRCA/Lynch syndrome referral if indicated

Mental Health

• Family history of depression, anxiety, or substance use
• Triggers earlier PHQ-9/GAD-7 monitoring
• Increased suicide risk awareness

Thyroid/Nodules

• Family history of thyroid cancer or autoimmune thyroid disease
• Triggers more frequent thyroid monitoring
• Lower threshold for FNA biopsy consideration

Step 4: Personalized Screening Recommendations

Based on risk score, recommend:

Low Risk

• Standard age-based screening per USPSTF guidelines
• Maintain healthy lifestyle

Moderate Risk

• Start screening 5-10 years earlier than standard recommendation
• Increase frequency (e.g., annual instead of every 3 years)
• Consider additional biomarkers

High Risk

• Start screening at earliest recommended age or 10 years before earliest family diagnosis
• Discuss with doctor about genetic referral if applicable
• Consider comprehensive screening panel
• Lifestyle intervention with highest priority

Step 5: Cross-Dimensional Correlation

Family history should inform other skills:

Output Format

# Family Health Assessment — [Date]

## Family History Summary

| Relative | Condition | Age at Dx | Notes |
|----------|-----------|-----------|-------|
| Father | Type 2 Diabetes | 55 | On metformin |
| Mother | Hypertension | 58 | Controlled |
| Mat. Grandmother | Breast Cancer | 62 | Treated |

## Genetic Risk Scores

| Condition | Score | Risk Level | Key Factors |
|-----------|-------|------------|-------------|
| Type 2 Diabetes | 52 | Moderate | Father T2DM at 55 |
| Cardiovascular | 45 | Moderate | Father MI at 58 |
| Breast Cancer | 32 | Low | 1 second-degree, age >50 |

## Screening Recommendations

**Diabetes Screening**
- Start: Age 35 (10 years before father's diagnosis)
- Frequency: Annual
- Test: HbA1c or fasting glucose

**Cardiovascular Screening**
- Start: Age 30 (earlier due to family history)
- Frequency: Annual lipid panel + BP check
- Consider: CAC scoring after 40

## Cross-Dimensional Correlations

🔗 Family history of T2DM + cardiovascular disease → increased monitoring priority
→ Recommend: nutrition-advisor (carb awareness), vital-monitor (BP + glucose tracking)

## Action Plan

- [ ] Complete detailed family health interview
- [ ] Schedule HbA1c test at next checkup
- [ ] Discuss lipid panel with doctor
- [ ] Add BP monitoring to weekly routine
