Limited data exists on the effectiveness of organized outreach campaigns on CRC screening completion for patients who are newly eligible for such screening.
We conducted an analysis of an existing clinical trial dataset of a publicly funded safety-net health system serving low-income populations.
A total of 619 patients aged 50-51 received the outreach intervention and 3108 patients aged greater than 51 years old who had no prior history of FIT testing similarly received the outreach intervention. Patients newly eligible for FIT were more likely to complete a FIT test compared with older patients who had yet to complete a FIT test (58.3% vs 40.5%, p < 0.001).
Patients who are newly eligible for colorectal cancer screening are more likely to respond to outreach interventions than older patients without a prior history of FIT, indicating newly eligible patients across diverse populations may benefit from targeted outreach intervention.
针对新符合结直肠癌筛查条件的患者,关于有组织的外展活动对其完成 CRC 筛查的效果,相关数据有限。
我们对一个为低收入人群服务的公共资助的保障医疗体系的现有临床试验数据集进行了分析。
共有 619 名年龄在 50-51 岁的患者接受了外展干预,3108 名年龄大于 51 岁且之前没有 FIT 检测史的患者也接受了同样的外展干预。与尚未完成 FIT 检测的老年患者相比,新符合 FIT 检测条件的患者更有可能完成 FIT 检测(58.3%比 40.5%,p<0.001)。
新符合结直肠癌筛查条件的患者比没有 FIT 检测史的老年患者更有可能对外展干预做出反应,这表明来自不同人群的新符合条件的患者可能受益于有针对性的外展干预。
