Trial Designed to Evaluate Efficacy of an SSE Melanoma Screening Campaign
Source: Oncology Nurse Advisor, May 2021
Skin self-examinations (SSEs) for the detection of primary or recurrent melanomas may be an effective surveillance strategy. The protocol design for a randomized, controlled trial to assess such a program was published in Trials.
Clinician-led surveillance for melanomas is a resource-intensive strategy with little evidence of improved health outcomes.
