Promoting Early Detection of Melanoma During the Mammography Experience
The proposed study is a pilot and feasibility study designed to develop materials to enhance early detection of melanomas among women at risk to develop melanoma due to indoor tanning, having a family history of melanoma or a personal history of melanoma.
The hypothesis of this study is that women, who are engaged in health promotion by having mammograms, will be able to assess the personal relevance of skin self-examination (SSE), be interested in learning about SSE and able to implement SSE while they are partially disrobed in the privacy of the changing room in the mammogram facility.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
After patients complete the mammogram, they return to the changing room and put on their clothing. After exiting the changing room in the Lynn Sage Comprehensive Breast Center of Northwestern Medicine/Prentice Women's Hospital and as they are preparing to leave, a research assistant (RA) will screen potential participants to acquire a randomly selected convenience sample of eligible participants (n=200). The first 100 eligible subjects will be asked if they regularly check their moles for concerning features. If the response is yes, then they will be asked if they have found concerning moles and what they did next. Verbal assent will be obtained.
Then the SSE materials will be placed into the changing rooms and the next 100 eligible subjects will be surveyed. The women, who found the information relevant, will be asked if they chose to check their skin while in the changing room. The skin location checked and use of the SSE kit will be ascertained. Women will be asked if they think they have a concerning mole. If the woman does not find a concerning mole, she will be asked if she intends to check her skin again. In addition, she will be asked if she intends to check the skin of family members. Women will be invited to take a brochure to help implement SSE.
The screening questions are as follows:
During your visit for mammography, did you notice any information about checking your skin for melanoma?
___Yes __ No
- Did you think this applied to you? ___Yes __ No
- If no, why not? (open ended)
- If yes, why? (open ended)
Did you check your skin? (If no, please proceed to question #8)
___Yes __ No
If yes, did you notice any concerning moles?
- Yes __ No
If yes, may we contact you by telephone or email in 2 weeks to see if you have made an appointment to see a dermatologist?
___Yes __ No If yes, which way do you prefer to be contacted?
