In 30 seconds
This randomized controlled trial investigates the effectiveness and implementation of a precision skin cancer risk feedback intervention in six federally qualified health centers. The study aims to compare outcomes between a precision intervention and a standard educational approach among patients identified as higher risk. Primary outcomes will be assessed at 6 and 12 months, focusing on tanning behaviors and skin cancer prevention communication.
Key findings
- The study targets a sample size of 286 participants for each intervention group.
- Primary outcomes include tanning scores, number of sunburns, and skin self-examination conduct.
- Effectiveness comparisons will focus on higher risk participants receiving precision feedback.
Why it matters
Integrating precision risk feedback into skin cancer prevention strategies may enhance patient engagement and improve health outcomes, particularly in high-risk populations. Understanding the effectiveness of such interventions can inform future public health initiatives.
