ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Implementation of Lung cancer screening (LCS) programs is challenging. The ILYAD study objectives is to evaluate communication methods to improve participation rate among the Lyon University Hospital employees. In this first part of the study, we aimed to determinate the number of eligible individuals among our population of employees.METHOD:
In November 2020, we conducted a questionnaire based cross sectional survey among the Lyon University Hospital employees (N = 26,954). We evaluated the PLCO m2012 risk prediction model and the eligibility criteria recommended by French guidelines. We assessed the proportion of eligible individuals among the responders and calculated the total eligible individuals in our hospital.RESULTS:
Overall, 4,526 questionnaires were available for analysis. 16.0% were current smokers, and 28.2% were former smokers. Among the 50-75yo ever-smoker employees, 27% were eligible according to the French guidelines, 2.7% of all eversmokers according to a PLCO m2012 score ≥ 1.51%, and thus, 3.8% of the surveyed population were eligible to the combined criteria. The factors associated with higher eligibility among 50-75yo ever-smokers were educational level, feeling symptoms related to tobacco smoking, personal history of COPD and family history of lung cancer. Using the French guidelines criteria only, we estimated the total number of eligible individuals in the hospital at 838.CONCLUSION:
In this study, we determined a theoretical number of eligible employees to LCS in our institution and the factors associated to eligibility. Secondly, we will propose LCS to all eligible employees of Lyon University Hospital with incremented information actions.Palavras-chave
