ABSTRACT
Lifelong, guideline-based monitoring for late effects is recommended for childhood cancer survivors (CCS). We examined rates of receiving surveillance tests among at-risk young adult CCS in a population-based study (n = 253; 50% Hispanic/Latino; mean post-treatment interval 14.5 years, range 5-22). Adherence rates were 36.1%, 31.9%, and 36.4% among those indicated for cardiac (n = 119), thyroid (n = 68), and breast (n = 66) surveillance, respectively, indicating that poor surveillance among long-term CCS is widespread. Receipt of any of these surveillance tests was positively associated with being in follow-up care, having any health insurance (vs. none), and receiving education about need for follow-up with surveillance (all p-values less than .05).
