  • Differences in pre-operative treatment for rectal cancer between Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and the Netherlands

    • Several studies have shown remarkable differences in colorectal cancer survival across Europe. Most of these studies lacked information about stage and treatment. In this study we compared short-term survival as well as differences in tumour stage and treatment strategies between five European countries: Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, and the Netherlands. For this retrospective cohort study all patients aged 18 years or older and operated on adenocarcinoma of the rectum without distant metastases and diagnosed in 2008 and 2009 were selected in national audit registries from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Differences in pre-operative treatment between the countries were compared using univariable and multivariable logistic regression. One year relative survival and one year relative excess risk of death (RER) were compared between the five countries. Large variation in the use of preoperative radiotherapy and chemoradiation was found between the countries. Even though, there was little variation in relative survival between the countries, except Sweden, which had a significant better one year RER of death among the elderly patients after adjustment. The differences in survival are expected to be caused by differences in pen-operative care, selection of patients, and especially management of elderly patients. The effects of preoperative treatment are expected to be seen on long term follow-up.

  • Improving quality of cancer care through surgical audit
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Surgical Oncology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0748-7983 .- 1532-2157. ; 36:Suppl 1, s. S23-26
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Quality of healthcare is a hot topic and this is especially true for cancer care. New surgical techniques and effective neoadjuvant treatment regimens have significantly improved colorectal cancer outcome. Nevertheless, there seem to be substantial differences in quality of care between European countries, hospitals and doctors. To reduce hospital variation, most initiatives aim on selective referral, encouraging patients to seek care in high-volume hospitals, where cancer care is concentrated to site-specialist multidisciplinary teams. As an alternative to volume-based referral, hospitals and surgeons can also improve their results by learning from their own outcome statistics and those from colleagues treating a similar patient group. European national audit registries in surgical oncology have led to improvements with a greater impact on survival than any of the adjuvant therapies currently under study. Moreover, they offer the possibility to perform research on patient groups that are usually excluded from clinical trials. Nevertheless, between European countries remain differences in outcome and treatment schedules that cannot be easily explained. The European CanCer Organisation (ECCO) has recognised these importances and created the 'European Registration of Cancer Care' (EURECCA) framework to develop a European colorectal audit structure. EURECCA will advance future treatment improvements and spread these to all European cancer patients. It provides opportunities to treat elderly and comorbid patients evidence based while it offers an unique insight in social-economical healthcare matters such as the consequences of commercialisation, treatment availability and screening initiatives. As such, ECCO has established the basis for a strong, multidisciplinary audit structure with the commitment to improve cancer care for every European cancer patient.

  • The EURECCA project : Data items scored by European colorectal cancer audit registries
  • 2012
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Surgical Oncology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0748-7983 .- 1532-2157. ; 38:6, s. 467-471
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aims: The EURECCA (European Registration of Cancer Care) consortium is currently formed by nine independently founded national colorectal audit registrations, of which most already run for many years. The cumulative experience of EURECCA's participants could be used to identify a 'core dataset' that covers all important aspects needed for high quality auditing and at the same time lacking needless data items that only consumes administrative effort. The aim of this study is to compare the data items used by the nine registries participating in EURECCA to identify a core dataset and explore options for future research. Methods: All colorectal outcome registrations participating in the EURECCA project were asked to supply a list with all the data items they score. Items were scored 'present' if they appeared literally in a registration or in case they could he calculated using other items in the same registration. The definition of a 'shared data item' was that at least eight of the nine participating registries scored the item. Results: The number of registered data items varied between 254 (Belgium) and 83 (Norway). Among the 45 variables were patient data, data about preoperative staging, surgical treatment, pre- or postoperative radio- and/or chemotherapy, and follow-up. Items about tumour recurrence or quality of life were scored too little to become shared data items. Conclusions: A total of 45 items were collected by 8 or more of the participating registries and subsequently met the criteria for a shared data item.
