摘要

While early cancer detection is frequently overused in high socioeconomic status communities, opportunities for early detection often are overlooked by practitioners serving lower income and minority populations. Review of our patient records in 1980 revealed that only 13% of patients had a record of a rectal examination, and less than 1% had either proctoscopy or fecal occult blood testing. Our program has made a dramatic impact on colorectal cancer detection, performing 8192 fecal occult blood tests in the first 5 1/2 years of our program. As with other programs, stage of cancer is greatly influenced by fecal occult blood testing, with 0 modified Dukes' stage D compared to 33% for the hospital registry, and 35% stage A compared to 0 for the registry. Compliance with diagnostic evaluation has been excellent (89.6%). The program has allowed for increased communication between patients and staff. Education about diet and other prevention has been institutionalized. Patients see our nurses as their advocates and openly express their fears and concerns about their health and health care. We began our fecal occult blood testing program at a time when it was considered the "standard of care" although randomized clinical trial proof was, and is, incomplete. This program provides evidence that "standard of care" is feasible in the public sector.
