Unit Review and Quiz

Unit Review
Here is what we have learned from this unit:
- The focus of the hospital-based (institution-based) cancer
registry is on clinical care and hospital administration.
- Two sub-categories under hospital-based (institution-based)
registries are single hospital (single institution) registries
and collective (multi-institution) registries.
- While the primary goal of the single hospital (institution)
registry is to improve patient care by medical audit-type
evaluation of outcomes, the primary goal of collective (multi-institution)
registries is to improve patient care by supporting institutional
registries with common standards and pooled data.
- Population-based registries record all new cases in a
defined population (such as a state) with an emphasis on
epidemiology and public health.
- Data from population-based registries can be used for
monitoring the distribution of late-diagnosed cancer cases
of the types for which early diagnoses is the strategy for
control, especially, communities, ethnicities, age and other
demographic groups.
