- W2894043107 abstract "Background and context: Cervical cancer is a largely preventable disease, yet kills about 260,000 women each year, mostly in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Cervical screening is a proven technique for reducing the incidence of cervical cancer, but only if screen-positive women receive timely, effective precancer treatment. As planning efforts to scale up cervical precancer treatment programs to reach more women are occurring in many high-burden countries, tools to determine what and how much equipment to procure and how to deploy it could help decision-makers make better use of scarce resources. Aim: To assist decision-makers, PATH developed the Cervical Precancer Treatment Planning Tool, with the aim of increasing access to lifesaving treatment while optimizing the use of scarce resources. This tool contains a scenario-based Excel model and Tableau data visualization mapping tool, which enable users to examine various strategies for deployment of ablative cervical precancer treatment equipment. The tool evaluates the number of women treated, the number of treatment devices needed, associated start-up costs, and cost of gas across five different scenarios. Strategy/Tactics: The model contains baseline data, gathered from a literature review and PATH fieldwork, for nine countries in sub-Saharan Africa, but it can be adapted to generate data for any LMIC. Users can also adjust baseline values to reflect the most current local data. The Tableau data visualization, which uses Uganda as an illustrative example, provides results at a district level. The tool's parameters, baseline inputs, and outputs were vetted with cervical precancer experts from eight African countries in 2017. Program/Policy process: The tool is available to country decision-makers who want to weigh the tradeoffs when trying to balance patient convenience and access with efficient utilization of equipment, skilled personnel, and financial resources. Results from the tool can inform national precancer treatment program strategies and decisions about device procurement and deployment. Outcomes: The country-level tool is publicly available ( https://sites.path.org/marketdynamics/ ) for decision-makers to make informed strategic decisions about their country's cervical precancer treatment programs. What was learned: The single-visit approach (SVA) for screening and treatment leads to treatment of the most women, but the financial costs for this scenario are on average more than 7 times greater than the next most costly scenario. In addition, treatment devices are underutilized in the SVA. While reducing the number of devices in each country reduces costs and improves equipment utilization, many women would require a second visit for treatment. Depending on the equipment deployment scenario (e.g., one treatment device per hospital), some women may need to travel long distances for this follow-up visit, potentially reducing treatment completion rates for those in need." @default.
