- W2408294604 abstract "The rural cancer registry at Barshi, (Barshi, Paranda & Bhum) which was set up in 1987, by the Indian Council of Medical Research is the first rural cancer registry in the country. The registry area comprises rural area of three sub districts in western India viz Barshi in Solapur district and Paranda & Bhum in Osmanabad district. The registry is situated in the vicinity of Nargis Dutt Memorial Cancer Hospital (NDMCH) (located on the outskirts of Barshi town) with a total population of about 0.4 million in 346 villages spread over 3713 km†. The village is the basic administrative unit in rural areas and is defined as having greater than 25% of the male working population engaged in agricultural activities, a population of less than 400 persons per km† and a total population of generally less than 5000. The registry area is situated between latitudes 17.1∞ & 18.4∞ N and longitudes 76∞ and 76.4∞E. Most of the population is Hindu (96%). Muslims form 3% and other religious groups 1%. Diagnosis and treatment facilities within the area itself are almost non-existent. The villagers seek care from various centres even as far as 400 kms. The registry is jointly funded by the Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai and the Indian Council of Medical Research, New Delhi and is staffed by one computer specialist cum Statistician, one medical records supervisor, one medical records in-charge, one records attendant and six field investigators. The diagnostic and treatment facilities are provided by NDMCH with technological support from Tata Memorial Hospital. The usual method of registration has been modified to overcome deficiencies in diagnostic services in the rural setting. Trained field investigators visit the villages regularly and interact with the rural community to identify and motivate likely cancer cases to visit a hospital for early diagnosis and treatment. To screen symptomatic cases cancer detection clinics are held biannually in each of the 12 zones, into which the Registry area is divided. Data on cancer cases from the area are also collected from various hospitals & histopathological laboratories (situated far & wide) which serve the population. However, 60% of cases are registered from NDMCH to which institution the field investigators refer the suspected cases. Information on deaths is collected from village death records and also directly from the local community (during village visits). As deaths are not generally medically certified, relatives of all deceased are contacted to collect relevant information, which assists in efollow backi to the medical records in the treating hospital or physi" @default.
