Evaluating the Implementation and Effectiveness of the BJC-Pink and Pearl Project on Lung Cancer Screening

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

The investigators proposal is ripe for executing as the investigators seek to leverage this natural experiment initiated by the BJC health system to evaluate the effectiveness of the Pink \& Pearl Campaign as an implementation strategy to promote lung cancer screening (LCS) uptake among LCS-eligible women undergoing mammography at BJC West County. This evaluation is grounded in the Integrated Screening Action Model that depicts individual- and environmental-level influences on the screening behavior process. Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, which combines both quantitative and qualitative approaches, the research questions and specific aims for this proposal are to: a) evaluate the baseline prevalence of LCS among LCS-eligible women; b) assess whether the Pink \& Pearl Campaign increases referrals and uptake/ completion of LCS among LCS-eligible women undergoing screening mammography; and c) evaluate individual and environmental factors influencing LCS uptake, and implementation outcomes of the campaign. These implementation outcomes will help identify whether the campaign was put in place successfully or not. This proposal will inform strategies for integrating cancer screening programs to improve poorly performing programs like LCS.

Target number of participants: 279
Treatments
Participants - scheduled for mammography and eligible for LCS
Women who are scheduled for mammography and are potentially LCS-eligible will be approached by the registration team and will complete a survey. Subjects who were referred for LCS will be contacted and the investigators will gauge their interest in returning for dual breast and lung screening program in future and rate their experience on a patient satisfaction scale.
Providers
Providers in the breast radiology service who referred women to LCS. Investigators will gather information on the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of the Pink and Pearl project.
