  1. EUROCHIP PILOT STUDIES IN POLAND Magdalena Bielska-Lasota and thePolish EUROCHIP WG Varenna, October 2007

  2. Conclusions from: EUROCHIP - Domain Group of Care & Treatment – EUROCHIP Pilot Studies Brighton (UK), 15th February 2006 were presented at the Meeting of Polish Cancer Registries in Warsaw, 16th February 2006 Main problem: expected difficulties in organization and conducting population-based study on cancer treatment. That resulted in delay of starting the EUROCHIP Pilot Studies formally.

  3. Number of inhabitants in the regions covered by CRs participatingin EUROCHIP Pilot Studies Zatoński W. et al

  4. Cancer incidence /ASR/ in the regions covered by CRs participatingin EUROCHIP Pilot Studies http://85.128.14.124/krn

  5. Breast cancer patients Age distribution in Poland, and participating regions

  6. Colon and rectal cancers Age distribution in Poland and participating regions

  7. Number of cases collected for the Study and number of new cases in the regions

  8. Breast cancer patients. Age distribution in participating regions, and cases collected for the study

  9. Colon + rectal cancers Age distribution in participating regions and cases collected for the study

  10. Methods of data collection • Every 10-th patient recorded in population based CRs in Gliwice (Silesia voivodship) was selected and every 5-th recorded in Kielce (Holycross ) and Opole (Opolskie) • Clinical data were collected from: • Medical records of the patients treated or consulted in regional Cancer Center • Sometimes pathological laboratories were contacted • Patients treated in other hospitals: • - Gliwice - they called local hospitals by phone • - Kielce - CRs workers travelled themselves to the local hospitals • - Opole - medical records were sent from local hospitals to the CR upon request • Sometimes pathological laboratories were also contacted • If medical records were not available: • In Gliwice - they skipped and came to the next patient registered in CR (estimation was not done) • In Kielce - they skipped and came to the next 5-th registered patient (estimation: ca 8%) • In Opole - they skipped and came to the next 5-th registered patient (estimation: ca 10%)

  11. Difficulties in data collection • Limitation of CRs data in scope of data on diagnosis and treatment • Lack of unified system of data transferring between CRs and local hospitals treating cancer patients • Heterogeneous system in recording of medical procedures in various hospitals

  12. Final Remarks CRs in Gliwice, Kielce and Opole are convinced that having above experience they will be able to develop better collaboration with local hospitals in the next step of the study in order to minimise the selection biasand produce more accurate data. CRs in Gliwice, Kielce and Opole declare their wish to participate in the project in future, if it comes to its realization
