It can be easily measured by a simple blood test.Alpha-1 is a genetic condition which, along with cystic fibrosis, is the commonest genetic lung disease in Ireland. It severely affects more than 12,000 people, with another 170,000 carriers also at risk of lung and liver disease. It is a proven genetic risk factor for the lung disease chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), also called emphysema. Alpha One Foundation Aims: To increase awareness of Alpha-1 amongst the medical profession and the general public. To improve diagnosis of Alpha-1.To provide patient support.To provide access to clinical trials for emerging therapies for Alpha-1.National Screening Programme:In 2004 we began a national screening programme funded by the Department of Health and Children to reduce the under diagnosis and misdiagnosis of Alpha-1. This targeted detection programme is the only national screening programme for Alpha-1 in the world. We follow World Health Organisation (WHO), American Thoracic Society (ATS), and European Respiratory Society (ERS) guidelines which recommend testing of:• all chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients,• poorly controlled non-responsive asthmatics• cryptogenic liver disease patients• As it is a hereditary disease all first degree family members of individuals with Alpha-1 should also be tested.The most important thing to remember is that cigarette smoke is the single biggest risk factor for lung disease in individuals with Alpha-1.
