Promoting Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Rural Rwanda: Impact of Community Health Worker and Nurse Training — BCED  

Breast Cancer Clinical Trial

Official title:
Promoting Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Rural Rwanda: Impact of a Community Health Worker and Health Center Nurse Training Program

Clinical Trial Summary

This project proposes a pilot intervention in Burera District to train rural Rwandan community health workers (CHWs) in breast awareness, and to train primary care nurses at rural health centers in the assessment and management of breast complaints, with a focus on when patients must be urgently referred for more advanced evaluation. The project will randomize health centers to receive the intervention and will evaluate the impact of these trainings on nurse and CHW knowledge and skills. In order to help Rwanda prepare for national early detection efforts, the investigators will also assess the impact of these trainings on patient volume at the health center level, and visits and further diagnostic testing at the district hospital level. The investigators will also examine the impact on the length of diagnostic delays experienced by patients with a breast problem. Among those patients diagnosed with breast cancer, the investigators will also assess their stage at diagnosis.
