====== Pedigree module ======
Dependencies: [[en:dev:modules:core]],[[en:dev:modules:relations]],[[en:dev:modules:diagnoses]],[[en:dev:modules:riskfactors]]

===== Description =====
The pedigree module builds upon the relations and diagnoses module to visualize the distribution of specific risk factors or diseases in a "family tree" and thereby facilitate identification of a possible hereditary disease.
Disease information about family members, that are also in the practice database, could be filled in automatically after selecting a specific diagnosis/risk factor (e.g. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). **CAVE: data protection issues when accessing other patients information!** 
The tree should be easy to edit together with the patient in front of the screen.
