Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study
Promoting colorectal cancer screening discussion: a randomized controlled trial.
Provider recommendation is a predictor of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. ⋯ The computer-delivered tailored intervention was more effective than a nontailored brochure at stimulating patient-provider discussions about CRC screening. Those who received the computer-delivered intervention also were more likely to have a CRC screening test (fecal occult blood test or colonoscopy) ordered by their PCP.
