- W2085245637 abstract "The public health problem of melanoma is difficult. Recent decades have seen substantial efforts directed at primary prevention, yet the incidence of melanoma continues to increase. Substantial efforts have been devoted to improving treatment, yet melanoma retains a poor prognosis if simple surgical excision is not curative. Early detection has made remarkable progress, however. Five-year relative survival has increased from approximately 80% in 1975 to greater than 90% in 1996. Even so, almost 8,000 Americans are projected to succumb to melanoma in 2005. Because most of these fatal melanomas are visible on the skin surface at a curable phase in their evolution, more can and must be done. To improve the early detection practices of clinicians, we have developed an eight-step Basic Skin Cancer Triage algorithm, which forms the core of a curriculum that we have shown can result in improved skills, attitudes, and practices. We are now in the process of attempting to test a Web-based version of that curriculum in a randomized trial. Skin self-examination also has tremendous potential for contributing to early detection of melanoma. We have tested an intervention to encourage thorough skin self-examination in a randomized trial and found it effective in increasing the performance of this procedure, on increase that is sustained for at least a year, while resulting in only short-term increases in surgical procedures on the skin. Early detection has not yet reached its full potential effect on the public health problem of melanoma and is poised to further reduce melanoma mortality." @default.
