Book excerpt: Breast cancer was a serious health concern for women living in the United States. The risk of a woman developing breast cancer in her lifetime was one in eight. Through early detection, however, breast cancer could be treated early, potentially increasing the likelihood of survival. Health educators promoted breast self-examination (BSE) and anticipated that by encouraging women to perform BSE at a young age, women would maintain it as a life-long habit. Due to the lack of information about young women and the performance of BSE, this project applied the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TMC) to breast cancer prevention behavior in women ages 18-24 to identify their stage of BSE performance. The TMC suggested that individuals progressed through five to six specific stages as they contemplated behavioral change and it was consistently supported by empirical research on health behaviors (Grimley, Prochaska, Velicer, Blais, and DiClemente, 1994). This project also examined the relationship between stage adoption and Health Belief Model variables identified in the literature on BSE. The goal of this project was to utilize the TMC and the Health Belief Model to assist health educators in tailoring their BSE educational efforts to help young women progress to a higher stage of change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes current knowledge and outlines directions for the future on how to improve the art of diagnosing colorectal cancer with emphasis on timeliness, one of the most vital issues in cancer management. Using a comprehensive, multi-discliplinary approach, it provides an overview of decisive factors in timely diagnosis of colorectal cancer from symptom scores and symptom awareness to technical aspects. The book starts by discussing early diagnosis from the perspective of patients, including the importance of awareness in the general population as well as psychological aspects. It then goes on to discuss issues of importance to clinicians, such as fast tracking, laboratory testing, improving technical skills and optimizing endoscopy services. In addition, more practical issues such as cost-effectiveness and auditing are also extensively discussed. By focusing on one specific but common form of cancer the content translates well across the scope of other cancer types and can be used by professionals working on different cancer types. This book provides clinicians, clinical researchers and policymakers with a comprehensive overview of the field of timeliness in diagnosing colorectal cancer. By addressing the challenges posed in the management of symptomatic patients it informs and educates the experts and could help improve diagnosis.
