No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of this observational study is to introduce a patient navigation system within the breast cancer unit at Hospital Central de Maputo (MOZ) and gather data to assess the efficacy of patient navigation in enhancing oncological outcomes among this patient cohort. The primary inquiries it seeks to address are as follows:

* Can patient navigation reduce the duration (in days) between patient admission and the commencement of treatment?
* Does patient navigation influence overall survival rates when juxtaposed with historical cohorts from the local setting? Participants will receive continuous support from a patient navigator starting from admission until the initiation of any oncological treatment.

Conditions

  • Breast Neoplasm Malignant Primary

Interventions

OTHER

patient navigation

two trained patient navigators will admit breast cancer patients to HCM, navigate them from admission to commencement of first treatment and will collect all pertinent epidemiological data and variables
