This diagnosis tool is a web-based questionnaire designed to help users identify potential symptoms of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) Deficiency, a genetic condition that can cause serious lung and liver diseases. By answering a series of questions related to common symptoms of AAT Deficiency, such as wheezing, yellowish skin, fatigue, and family history of lung or liver diseases, users can assess their risk of having this condition. The tool calculates a score based on the presence of these symptoms, and depending on the score, it provides a preliminary suggestion about the likelihood of the user having AAT Deficiency.
It’s crucial to understand that this tool is intended for informational purposes only and does not replace professional medical evaluation and diagnosis. The results generated by this questionnaire should not be considered conclusive or definitive. If the tool suggests the possibility of AAT Deficiency or if you have concerns about your health, it is imperative to consult with a healthcare provider. A doctor can offer a comprehensive assessment, including physical examinations, blood tests, and genetic testing, to accurately diagnose the condition and recommend appropriate treatment. Always rely on professional medical advice for health-related decisions.
