Filter by:The long-term goal of this research is to increase breast cancer screening rates in NYC Chinese immigrants. The researchers plan to accomplish this objective by developing and testing a culturally- and linguistically-adapted Witness Project program for Chinese immigrants. To inform the intervention development, the study team will identify barriers and facilitators to breast cancer screening in Chinese immigrants through individual qualitative interviews. A total of 156 participants will be recruited during the entire study. In Aim 1 which started in July 2021, 60 women were recruited for in-depth interviews to assess their breast cancer knowledge, perceived barriers and benefits/risks to completing mammography, perceived susceptibility to breast cancer, fatalism, screening intention, acculturation, language preference, and health literacy. In Aim 2, 96 women will be recruited to participate in the pilot testing of the intervention. Recruitment will take place at community sites that serve Chinese immigrants in New York City. Enrollment for Aim 2 is anticipated to start in March of 2022.
This study will collect and compare clinical image quality measurements of randomly scheduled, asymptomatic, screening mammography patients, right breast mammogram performed with and without the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets on the receptor plate. The measurements will determine if the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets increases the mammogram's clinical image quality and if Bella Blankets protective coverlets can be used as an aid for EQUIP compliance. In addition, a patient satisfaction survey will be conducted with participants to determine if the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets improves patient satisfaction.
