... . The NPS was a randomized trial of the timing of surveillance colonoscopy.
From page 245...
... In each of the years between the surveillance procedures, questionnaires were administered.
From page 246...
... In addition, a villous component has been recognized as an important risk indicator, but the data from the NPS did not define advanced adenomas using that criterion.
From page 247...
... . However, the risk of advanced adenoma at three years is identical between the two arms (3.3 percent)

... 248 ECONOMIC MODELS OF COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING SLIDE 8 SLIDE 8 NOTES: This chart shows the point of detection of 5 cancers detected in the study population. The detection of cancers appears not to have been affected by the surveillance strategy.
From page 249...
... This chart shows that for advanced adenomas, the difference in incidence between the two arms is not different.
From page 250...
... 250 ECONOMIC MODELS OF COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING SLIDE 10 SLIDE 10 NOTES: Stratifying patients by age and status of a parent with colorectal cancer shows the increased probability of an advanced adenoma in the years following diagnosis. The rate for patients 60 years of age or older with a parent with colorectal cancer is almost 25 percent.
From page 251...
... APPENDIX O 251 SLIDE 11 SLIDE 11 NOTES: If a person had 3 or more high-risk adenomas at the index event, the risk of an advanced adenoma by the sixth years of surveillance is over 15 percent.
From page 252...
... . The data are currently being reanalyzed with the current definition of high-risk adenoma.
From page 253...
... They have shown that the miss rate is inversely related to the size of the tumor. For advanced adenomas, the miss rate is small, so it is unlikely that the clinicians in the NPS missed a high number of tumors.

... 256 ECONOMIC MODELS OF COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING SLIDE 16 SLIDE 16 NOTES: There are currently three sets of recommendations for surveillance after adenomas. The multi-society task force, which issued guidelines in 2003, represents the consensus of a number of different provider groups.
From page 257...
... Two groups indicate that every-five-years is still warranted, whereas the American Cancer Society recommends that such individuals be considered average risk and returned to a screening pool (with a colonoscopy ever 10 years)

From page 261...
... It appears, from the surveys, that physicians actually take those risk differences into account when they decide on what to recommend to their individual patients.
