Culp Tracey L. Krupski Jennifer M. Lobo BJUI Compass Abstract Objective To identify factors associated with decreased adherence to the national risk‐stratified surveillance cystoscopy schedule for non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Patients and methods A retrospective, IRB‐approved review was conducted at a single academic institution to identify patients diagnosed with NMIBC who underwent cystoscopy. Patient demographics were collected and driving distance to the urology clinic was calculated. Area Deprivation Index (ADI) and Distressed Communities Index (DCI) were used as proxies for socio‐economic status (SES). Clinical data included year of diagnosis, cancer stage, risk stratification per national guidelines, pathology results and surveillance cystoscopy dates. The primary outcome was 12‐month adherence to surveillance cystoscopy. Stepwise model selection using logistic regression identified factors associated with adherence. Results Of 591 patients identified, 351 had a confirmed pathological diagnosis and complete follow‐up data. After excluding 57 patients who experienced recurrence, 112/294 (38.1%) were found to be compliant with the one‐year surveillance schedule. Adherence was inversely associated with travel time to the clinic (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.99–1.00; p = 0.015), while ADI and DCI were not statistically significant in relation to adherence. Other significant predictors included diagnosis before the 2016 guideline update where patients diagnosed pre‐2016 were much more likely to adhere (OR 4.36, 95% CI 2.32–8.55; p < 0.001), risk stratification where patients of intermediate‐ and high‐risk were much less likely to adhere than those of low‐risk (intermediate: OR 0.48, CI 0.26–0.88; p = 0.018, high risk: OR 0.14, CI 0.04–0.40; p < 0.001), and smokers were much more likely to adhere than non‐smokers (OR 1.91, CI 1.08–3.43; p = 0.028). Conclusions Travel time emerged as a significant barrier to adherence to NMIBC surveillance guidelines, whereas patients' SES did not appear to influence compliance. These findings suggest that logistical obstacles may play a more prominent role than socio‐economic factors. Incorporating telehealth solutions and local partnerships may improve adherence and outcomes for NMIBC patients. 10.1002/bco2.70135 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ |
