Improving colonoscopy follow-up for patients with high risk colon polyps

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial tests a multilevel intervention aimed at enhancing colonoscopy surveillance for patients diagnosed with high risk colon polyps. The study involves interviews with participants and randomization of primary care clinics into two groups: one receiving enhanced reminders and scheduling support for colonoscopy, and the other continuing with standard care practices. The primary goal is to increase the rate of completed surveillance colonoscopies within 3.5 years of high risk neoplasia diagnosis, thereby reducing the risk of colorectal cancer. The intervention includes automated health record updates, patient reminders, and proactive scheduling calls.
