Objectives: To compare the feasibility of mass screening by flexible sigmoidoscopy with screening by faecal occult blood testing (Haemoccult) and both tests combined. Design: Patients were randomised to screening by flexible sigmoidoscopy, faecal blood testing, or both tests. The flexible sigmoidoscopy examinations were performed by a general practitioner. Setting: General practice. Subjects: 3...
Colorectal cancer is the third most frequent cancer, yet screening rates for this cancer remain low. This study was designed to identify factors associated with family physicians' rates of recommending or providing flexible sigmoidoscopy. We applied a behavioral model consisting of three components: physician attitude toward providing the test, facilitating conditions, and reinforcing condition...
BACKGROUND A single sigmoidoscopy examination at around age 60 years has been proposed as a cost-effective strategy to prevent colorectal cancer. A multicenter randomized controlled trial, the SCORE trial, is in progress in Italy to estimate the impact of this strategy on colorectal cancer incidence and mortality and the duration of the protective effect. We present the baseline screening outco...
BACKGROUND Colonoscopy is the best way of imaging the colon with concurrent biopsy and treatment. However it is expensive, requires full bowel preparation, and carries a risk of complications. Flexible sigmoidoscopy is an alternative way to investigate symptoms that raise the suspicion of a lesion of the rectum or left colon. AIM OF THE STUDY To evaluate flexible sigmoidoscopy as the main inv...
OBJECTIVE Our study was a randomized, controlled trial to assess a novel strategy that provides comprehensive colorectal cancer screening in a single visit versus traditional sigmoidoscopy and, where appropriate, colonoscopy on a subsequent day. METHODS Consecutive patients referred for screening were randomized to control or so-called "conversion" groups. Patients in the control group were p...
Aim: The study aim was to investigate the correlations between suspicious lower GI symptoms and endoscopic findings in symptomatic population using flexible sigmoidoscopy. Methods: Retrospective review of all rapid access sigmoidoscopy clinic referrals was performed. Clinical, sigmoidoscopy findings and outcome were reviewed. Patients were further monitored for over five years for new cancers. ...
