  • The Factors Associated with Clinic Follow-Up of Old Patients with Colorectal Cancer

    Objective To explore the factors associated with clinic follow-up of old patients with colorectal cancer and provide more evidence to improve the efficiency and quality of clinic follow-up after sugery. Methods The data of 253 patients who were underwent sugery because of old colorectal cancer in our hospital from January 2009 to May 2010 were reviewed. Data about the rate and times of clinic follow-up within 6 months after operation were collected via Hospital Information Systerm,  then the follow-up rate was calculated,  and to analyse the possible factors associated with follow-up times and rate. Results The total follow-up rate was 84.2%(213/253),  and the total times of follow-up was between 0 to 24 times per one,  (4.08±0.03)times on average. On the times of follow-up,  patients inside the city was higher than that outside,  patients with medical or postoperative complications were higher than those without,  and patients with a stoma was lower than that without,  and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).While on the follow-up rate,  patients underwent a radical sugery or with a stoma were lower than those not or without,  and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The clinic follow-up of old colorectal cancer patients is not satisfactory,  and the possible factors associated with follow-up times or rate are the distance between residence and hospital, have medical complications or not,  have postoperative complications or not,  radical sugery or not,  and with a stoma or without.
