About
Denmark has a higher incidence of cervical cancer than other Nordic countries, although all Danish women (aged 23-65) are screened regularly to identify possible cervical dysplasia or asymptomatic invasive cancer.
Annually 40 000 women receives an abnormal or inadequate test result and a follow-up recommendation.
However problems with delayed follow-up may threaten the effectiveness of the Danish Cervical Cancer Screening Program, as 20% of women are delayed and dysplasia potentially can progress into cancer.
Delayed follow-up is found in situations where women either consciously or unconsciously postpone follow-up, or because of organizational aspects of the screening program, where communication regarding test results can fail either in content or with delay.This study will evaluate two interventions designed to increase follow-up:
The results will be of great importance to the future organisation of cervical and colorectal cancer screening programmes in Denmark, but will also have international interest because of their similar challenges.
