RESUMO
Abstract@#Objective To investigate the willingness to receiving multitarget stool DNA (MT-sDNA) testing and factors affecting the payment among individuals receiving colonoscopy screening, so as to provide the evidence for the formulation and health economic evaluation of colorectal cancer screening strategies. @*Methods@# Individuals at ages of 40 to 75 years that received colonoscopy screening in The Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University Medical School from August 2021 to March 2022 were sampled. Participants' demographics, living behaviors, family history, willingness to receive MT-sDNA testing and willingness to pay for MT-sDNA testing were collected using questionnaire surveys, and factors affecting the willingness to receive and pay for MT-sDNA testing were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model.@*Results @#A total of 546 respondents were enrolled, with a mean age of (56.25±8.66) years and including 282 men (51.65%). There were 504 respondents that were willing to receiving MT-sDNA testing (92.31%) and 480 that were willing to pay for the MT-sDNA testing (88.24%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that a family history of colorectal cancer in first-degree relatives (OR=0.246, 95%CI: 0.068-0.888), history of hemorrhoids (OR=0.300, 95%CI: 0.109-0.826) resulted in low willingness to receive MT-sDNA testing, and recognizing the reliability of MT-sDNA testing (OR=5.749, 95%CI: 1.480-22.323), considering no difficulty in sampling for MT-sDNA testing (OR=32.042, 95%CI: 6.666-154.021) and considering a difficulty in sampling for MT-sDNA testing (OR=20.278, 95%CI: 4.405-93.354) resulted in high willingness to receive MT-sDNA testing, while recognizing the reliability of MT-sDNA testing (OR=5.003, 95%CI: 1.761-14.216), concern about the reliability of MT-sDNA testing (OR=4.166, 95%CI: 1.285-13.501), considering no difficulty in sampling for MT-sDNA testing (OR=6.558, 95%CI: 2.105-20.428) and considering a difficulty in sampling for MT-sDNA testing (OR=5.820, 95%CI: 1.810-18.720) resulted in high willingness to pay for the MT-sDNA testing among individuals receiving colonoscopy screening.@*Conclusion @#A family history of colorectal cancer in first-degree relatives, history of hemorrhoids and awareness of MT-sDNA testing are factors affecting the willingness to receive and pay for the MT-sDNA testing among individuals receiving colonoscopy screening.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effects of nitrous oxide inhalation on conscious sedation of patients during colonoscopy and analyze its risk factors. Methods From October 2016 to July 2017, a total of 154 patients undergoing colonoscopy were included in the study. The comfort level was rated using Modified Gloucester Comfort Scale ( MGCS). Factors affecting comfort level were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression, and then a comfort stratification predicting model was created. Results All 154 patients finished colonoscopy. The mean time of ideal anesthesia state was 195. 15 s. Among the 154 cases, 115 ( 74. 7%) were identified as comfort ( grade of MGCS from 1 to 3) and 39 (25. 3%) were rated as discomfort ( grade of MGCS from 4 to 5). Multivariate regression indicated that age ≥60 years ( P＝0. 000, OR＝1. 074, 95%CI: 1. 036-1. 114) and mild anxiety ( P＝0. 018, OR＝3. 338, 95%CI: 1. 227-9. 079) were associated with comfort level during colonoscopy.The established model with the age (X1) and mild anxiety (X2) was P＝eY/(1+eY), Y＝－3. 812+0. 071X1+1. 205X2(no anxiety was assigned 1, mild anxiety was assigned 2), and the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve was 0. 746 (95%CI: 0. 661-0. 830), which showed moderate predictive power of the final model. The model reached the highest predictive accuracy when the Yoden Index was 0. 838 with sensitivity of 50. 4% and specificity of 89. 7% for predicting comfort level of patients in conscious sedation status induced by nitrous oxide inhalation during colonoscopy. Conclusion Nitrous oxide can ease pain during colonoscopy, especially for patients over 60 years old and with anxiety. We can use it as an option according to actual circumstance in practice.
