“…Patient discomfort (19) and the inherently projectional nature, which complicates assessment of superimposed bowel loops, have limited the use of doublecontrast barium enema as a screening tool in the past (20). Furthermore, the barium enema technique exposes the patient and the examiner to ionizing radiation.…”

“…Studies published before 1997 were also excluded because the colonoscopic CRC screening guidelines for average-risk individuals were not published until 1997 (33) and colonoscopies performed before this year would likely have not been for screening purposes. Furthermore, recent improvements in colonoscopes make the findings of older studies less relevant in the context of today's standard of care (34)(35)(36)(37)(38) because newer colonoscopes, which are more flexible and induce less pain compared with their predecessors (39), may increase patient satisfaction.…”

Factors Influencing Choices for Colorectal Cancer Screening Among Previously Unscreened African and Caucasian Americans: Findings from a Triangulation Mixed Methods Investigation

We investigated factors that influence choice of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test and assessed the most- and least-preferred options among fecal occult blood testing (FOBT), flexible sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy, and double contrast barium enema among adults with varied race, gender, and geographic region demographics. Mixed methods data collection consisted of 10 focus group interviews and a survey of the 93 focus group participants. Participants were ≥50 years of age and reported not having been screened for colorectal cancer in the last ten years. Analyses examined differences by race, gender, and geographic location. Participants had modest knowledge about CRC and there were fewer correct answers to knowledge questions by African Americans. Participants recognized value of early detection, and identified health symptoms and their doctor's recommendation as influential for obtaining CRC screening. They chose colonoscopy and FOBT as the most preferred tests, while barium enema was least preferred. The analysis revealed intra-group variations in preference, though there were no significant differences by race, gender, or location. Openness of discussing this sensitive topic, lack of knowledge about colorectal cancer and screening costs, and diversity of preferences expressed within study groups suggest the importance of patient-physician dialogue about colorectal cancer screening options. New approaches to promoting colorectal cancer screening need to explore methods to facilitate patients establishing and expressing preferences among the screening options.
