Routine Screening • Advocate to decrease the risk of certain behaviors. • ACOG recommends periodic screening summarized in Table 1 of the Syllabus

Depression Screening • 5-9% of adults experience severe depression. • Occurs at least once in 20% of all individuals during their life. • WHO estimates major depression the 4th most important cause of disability and may progress to # 2 by 2020.
Depression Screening US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) • Screening improves accuracy of identification of illness like depression. • Accurate diagnosis leads to significant decrease in morbidity. • Recurrent screening allows for improved relational skills with a patient. • History is the important screen in this case. • Watch for ”anhedonia”
Skin Cancer Screening • Melanoma • Increased from 5.7 -13.3/100,000 from 1973 – 1995 • Lifetime risk 0.21% for women • Women >65 represent 14% of new diagnosis • ACOG recommends annual >13 (USPSTF does not secondary to insufficient evidence) • Dermatogists total body screen 94-98% sensitivity & specificity
Tobacco Use Screening • Up to 30% of reproductive age women smoke • Responsible for 30% of all cancers • Responsible for 55% of cardio deaths • 70% of smokers see doctors annually • 70% want to quit • 35% never addressed by doctor • <15% were offered smoking cessation • Only 3% were given follow up appointment to discuss • Smoking in pregnancy outweighs any pharmacotherapy risk • Every patient should be asked
