Description:Background
We used New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry (NHCR) data to examine the association between Post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer (PCCRC) and sessile serrated detection rates (SSLDR).
Methods
We included patients with either a colonoscopy or a CRC diagnosis in the NH State Cancer Registry. PCCRC, was any CRC diagnosed >/= 6 months after index exam.
Results
Of 26,901 patients, 162 were diagnosed with PCCRC. The hazard ratio for PCCRC was lowest for patients whose endoscopists had the highest SSLDR quintile (≥6%) (HR=0.29;95%CI:0.16–0.50)
Discussion
Endoscopists with higher SSLDR had lower risks for PCCRC. These data validate SSLDR as a clinically relevant quality measure.
