Objective To explore the whole constructive conception and organization structure strategy of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) for colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods Combined the characteristics of large public hospital, with recognized treatment pathway in MDT for CRC and the way of medical project construction, MDT for CRC project team summarized a system of MDT for CRC of West China Hospital (MDT-CRC-WCH) by own characteristics and subject feature. Results MDT for CRC summarized the 5 basic characteristics about profession, classification, interaction, optimization and fast. The project has the core competencies: system new operation types for colorectal cancer and volunteer culture. By the matrix organization structure, MDT set the main departments: database team, follow-up team, nursing team and public team. Conclusion With effective MDT whole construction and suitable organization structure, MDT will develop in long time.
ObjectiveTo analyze the follow-up data of colorectal cancer in the Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA).MethodsThe information in the Dacca database was screened, and the one whose operative date and follow-up date were not blank in the total data was selected. The follow-up data were analyzed, including length of follow-up, survival outcomes, coping styles (doctors’ attitude and reaction for follow-up), follow-up path (whether to choose out-patient, Wechat, QQ tools, phone call, text message, mobile application, face-to-face), the number of follow-up (the number of out-patient follow-up, the number of telephone follow-up, and the number of follow-up within 5 years).ResultsA total of 6 437 data items were analyzed for colorectal cancer adjuvant follow-up. ① The follow-up period of five years (2004–2015) was 56.6% (3 642/6 437), and the follow-up time was 0–201, 67 (26, 97) months. ② The highest data composition ratio of survival outcomes was “Survival” (79.7%, 4 611/5 787), and in the data with five-year follow-up period (2004–2015), the highest data composition ratio of survival outcomes was “Survival” (75.0%, 2 550/3 401), and the survival rate of the five-year follow-up period in 2008 was the highest (91.4%, 235/257). ③ The highest data composition ratio of the coping styles was the doctors’ active follow-up (76.8%, 2 121/2 762). ④ The highest data composition ratio of the follow-up path was out-patient service (90.6%, 4 236/4 676). ⑤ The highest data composition ratio of the number of out-patient follow-up was conducted by the original surgical team (100%, 4 380/4 380), the specific number was 0–130、5 (2, 10) times. The data composition ratio of telephone follow-up was 86.9% (3 808/4 380) and the specific number was 0–68、0 (0, 1) times. The highest frequency of follow-up was in the first year (89.9%, 3 044/3 386) and the specific number was 0–73、5 (3, 9) times.ConclusionBy expounding the characteristics of the colorectal cancer follow-up from colorectal cancer in DACCA, it provides some references for using big data to determine prognosis.
Objective The article explained how to build the data system and its running strategy in the mode of multi-disciplinary team （MDT） for colorectal carcinoma. Methods It illuminated the cause of the data system building, also described the essential composition of the data system and how to support the running of the data system, and it discussed the value feedback of the data system, lastly the author proposed the prospect of the data system building. Results The data system could work normally through consultation of doctors, follow-up, clinical support and appropriate implement of construction of information flow-sheet in colorectal carcinoma MDT mode. Conclusion As the foundation of colorectal carcinoma MDT, data system could show both medical and social value through change of medical mode.
ObjectiveTo explain the latest concepts of colorectal surgery, and predict the future direction of it. MethodsA review and summary based on the clinical experience of our hospitals and theses over the past years and new advances on the researches in home and abroad were performed. ResultsDoctors should attach more importance to anal preserving operation; and there should be more usage of fast track in colorectal surgery. Besides, predicting low risk of postoperative complications and digitizing colorectal surgery also needed more attention. ConclusionThose aspects of colorectal surgery in the result need further development.
ObjectiveTo unscramble personal data and its tags and structures of Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA) in West China Hospital.MethodThe way of words for description was used.ResultsThe definition and setting of 23 items with 18 categories for the personal data from DACCA in West China Hospital was performed. The relevant data label of each item and the structured way needed at the big data application stage were elaborated and the corrective precautions of classification items were described. The three classification items involved privacy attention were described in detailed.ConclusionsBased on description about personal data from DACCA in West China Hospital, it is provided a clinical standard and guide for analyzing of DACCA in future. It also could provide enough experience for construction of colorectal cancer database by staff from same occupation.
Objective To investigate the value of lymphatic tracer on surgery for colorectal cancer. Methods Literatures about lymphatic tracer and lymphatic mapping in colorectal cancer were reviewed. Results Lymphatic mapping technique was helpful to increase the numbers of lymph node harvested, to identify sentinel lymph node, thereby increased the accuracy of pathological staging. Besides, lymphatic tracer had great potential uses in lymph nodes targeted chemotherapy during surgery, which might improve prognosis in colorectal cancer patients. Conclusions The lymphatic tracer has been powerful in diagnosis and treatment for colorectal cancer. The more extensive and more profound application of lymphatic mapping depend on more clinical study.
ObjectiveTo describe the constructive process of follow-up of colorectal cancer part in the Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA) in West China Hospital. MethodThe article was described in words. ResultsThe specific concepts of follow-up of colorectal cancer including end-stage of follow-up, survival status, follow-up strategy, follow-up emphasis, follow-up plan, follow-up record using communication tools, follow-up frequency, annual follow-up times, and single follow-up record of the DACCA in the West China Hospital were defined. Then they were detailed for their definition, label, structure, error correction, and update. ConclusionThrough the detailed description of the details of follow-up of colorectal cancer of DACCA in West China Hospital, it provides the standard and basis for the clinical application of DACCA in the future, and provides reference for other peers who wish to build a colorectal cancer database.
