Breast Cancer Risk Reduction: A Patient Doctor Intervention
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating BreastCARE for Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 1,235 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The proposed research combines the scientific advances in breast cancer research with health information technology (IT) to design a personalized intervention that assesses breast cancer risk for women, disseminates important breast health information, and facilitates discussion of breast cancer risk reduction practices. Our goal is to implement a tablet-PC (personal computer) based breast cancer risk education (BreastCare) intervention in the primary care setting that estimates a woman's individual risk for breast cancer and provides her and her physician with personalized breast cancer risk information and recommendations for action.

Timeline
Interventions
Physician Report. At the time of an individual participant's visit to her primary care physician and her completion of the assessment tool, her physician will receive a physician report. The physician report is designed to facilitate communication about breast cancer risk during the primary care visit and to provide tailored risk reduction recommendations.
