WI 610 Anus. Rectum -- NeoplamsAbstract: Le Centre fédéral d'expertise des soins de santé (KCE) a étudié avec l'Université de Gand la meilleure manière de faire état de la qualité des soins du cancer du rectum. Les médecins du groupe PROCARE ont mis a disposition les données anonymes de 3 300 patients traités dans 79 hôpitaux belges. L'évaluation a notamment tenu compte du fait que tous les cancers nen sont pas au même stade et de linfluence que cela peut avoir sur la comparaison des résultats entre hôpitaux. En outre des indicateurs globaux, synthétisant les nombreuses données disponibles, ont été développés. Les efforts qui ont été faits ces dernières années pour standardiser la chirurgie semblent avoir porté leurs fruits. En matière de diagnostic et d'examen des tissus il reste encore beaucoup de différences entre les hôpitaux. La méthode développée ici pour évaluer la qualité du cancer du rectum peut être appliquée à d'autres types de cancers.

WI 610 Anus. Rectum -- NeoplamsAbstract: Het Federaal Kenniscentrum voor de Gezondheidszorg (KCE) zocht samen met UGent de beste manier om de zorgkwaliteit voor rectumkanker in kaart te brengen. De artsen van de PROCARE groep stelden de anonieme gegevens ter beschikking van 3300 patiënten uit 79 Belgische ziekenhuizen. Bij de beoordeling werd o.m. rekening gehouden met het feit dat niet alle kankers in een even ver gevorderd stadium zijn, want alleen al hierdoor kunnen de resultaten verschillen van ziekenhuis tot ziekenhuis. Daarnaast werd ook getracht de grote hoeveelheid aan kwaliteitsinformatie te bundelen in enkele samenvattende indicatoren. De inspanningen die de voorbije jaren werden geleverd om de chirurgie te standaardiseren blijken succesvol te zijn. Op het gebied van diagnose en weefselonderzoek bestaan er wel nog veel verschillen tussen ziekenhuizen. De ontwikkelde methode van kwaliteitsevaluatie van rectumkanker is ook bruikbaar voor andere soorten kankers.
