2013年11月18日 更新者:Bechara Choucair、Northwestern University
A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Direct-to-Patient Outreach Program to Improve Rates of Colorectal Cancer Screening in a Low Income and Racially Diverse Population
The purpose of this study is to determine if the direct mailing of fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) kits to patients who are due for colorectal cancer screening is an effective way to improve colorectal cancer screening rates within a low income and racially/ethnically diverse population.
研究概览
详细说明
Patients ages 50 to 80 who are identified through the electronic health record as not being up to date on colorectal cancer screening are eligible for the study and will be randomly assigned to the intervention or usual care group.
Individuals in the intervention group will be mailed a letter informing them that they are due for colorectal cancer screening, educational material regarding colorectal cancer screening, a fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) kit, directions on how to use and return the FOBT kit.
The proportion of patients assigned to the intervention versus usual care groups who complete a guideline recommended form of colorectal cancer screening within 4 months of the initiation of outreach will be compared.
