How we work

1. Your DNA, your personal blueprint:

Your DNA is your unique blueprint, encoding proteins from information given by your parents. For those facing hearing and balance challenges, deciphering your blueprint can hold the key to improved diagnosis and treatments.

2. Privacy First: Secure and Confidential:

While your DNA contains invaluable health insights, it also carries potential privacy risks. At Otogenex, we prioritise your privacy. We’re committed to offering a service that is not only medically advanced but also secure and confidential. We harness the power of your DNA while ensuring it remains protected at all times.

3. The Otogenex Process:

  • Consultation: During your appointment, your medical practitioner will provide you with a spit test sample collection vial.

  • Clinical-Grade DNA Sequencing: This sample is sent for high-quality, clinical-grade DNA sequencing.

  • Analysis and Insights: Once sequenced, the laboratory forwards your DNA file to us. Using advanced technologies and algorithms, we compare your DNA against a custom database of hundreds of otology-related genes known to impact hearing and balance.

  • Comprehensive Reporting: Drawing from this comparison, we provide a detailed report to your medical practitioner. This report provides insights that can significantly enhance treatment planning and patient communication.

4. Elevating Patient Support:

Our approach offers a seamless, efficient, and secure method to share DNA files and insights with the patient-doctor treatment circle, ensuring patients receive care that’s both advanced and personalised.

5. Tailored Reports for Every Clinical Purpose:

No two patients are the same, and neither are our reports. Each report is tailored to its clinical purpose. It undergoes a thorough review and captures all vital DNA data, accompanied by recommendations for further assessments.

6. Powered by Global Research:

We stay at the forefront of otological research. Our databases and algorithms are regularly updated with information from peer reviewed, globally recognised journals and publications, including Acta Otorrinolaringológica Española, Scientific Reports, Nature Communications, JAMA, Hearing Research and many others. This ensures almost realtime clinical application supported by the latest scientific findings.
