认识到乳腺癌护理中的不平等

介绍 乳腺癌 筛选, 早期诊断和创新疗法, along with increased disease awareness have significantly improved the survival of people living with 乳腺癌.5 然而, 在乳腺癌治疗方面存在着显著的不平等, thus the reduction in 乳腺癌 mortality has not been shared equally among patient populations.2-4

患者的诊断结果常常不同, treatment and care based on 谁 they are and where they live, 而不是临床需求.2-4 These inequities of care can lead to significant disparities in outcomes, for example:

  • The decline in 乳腺癌 mortality rates being observed in high-income countries over the past four decades has yet to be achieved in the majority of low- and middle-income countries.6
  • 即使在国家内部, inequities of care can be observed based on several factors, 比如年龄, 残疾, 种族, 性别, 农村和偏远社区, 性取向和社会经济地位.2-4

助力乳腺癌进展资助计划 is an initiative funded by AstraZeneca and supported by the 慈善援助基金会(CAF). It has been established in recognition of the inequities in 乳腺癌 care around the world and the significant barriers to optimal care that are contributing to avoidable 乳腺癌 deaths. The programme aims to fund innovative and inspiring projects that could help transform 乳腺癌 care for undeserved patient populations and patients living in areas of low socioeconomic status.

In 2024, 成立之年, the Powering 乳腺癌 Progress grant programme will focus on 乳腺癌 patient navigation. Patient navigation is an integral part of the patient experience as it helps individuals navigate their complex care pathway.7,8 

改善患者导航服务

Patient navigation refers to the individualised assistance, 包括临床和非临床, provided to patients to navigate the complex health system from diagnosis to survivorship and/or palliative care.7,9,10 It has been identified as a critical resource for patients with 乳腺癌 as it has been suggested to improve patient outcomes7 并减少对卫生保健系统的影响.11

然而, there are significant barriers to accessing patient navigation services, and these are even more pronounced amongst hard-to-reach patients and those living in areas of low socioeconomic status.3,4,12  这些障碍包括缺乏认识, inconsistent programme models and approaches and structural barriers, 比如有限的资源和投资.7 在一些国家, training and professionalisation of patient navigators is lacking and, 在大多数情况下, there is no officially recognised oncology patient navigation certification, 导致缺少领航员, which is being reinforced by the shortage of nurses worldwide.8

Through the Powering 乳腺癌 Progress grant programme, 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐希望提高人们的意识, availability and access to patient navigation programmes for underserved patient populations and patients living in areas of low socioeconomic status.
