Colorectal Cancer Prevention (CRC-P) Measures
- CRC-P 1: Identification of CRC Risk
- CRC-P 2: Endoscopic Examination Interval
- CRC-P 3: Use of Anesthesia Professionals
- CRC-P 4: Procedure-Related Complications
- CRC-P 5: Colonoscopy Assessment (Procedural Adequacy)
- CRC-P 6: Adenoma Detection Rate
CRC-P 1: Identification of CRC Risk
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older, with a documented colorectal cancer risk assessment prior to the procedure.
CRC-P 2: Endoscopic Examination Interval
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older, with an appropriate documented follow-up interval based on post-procedure colorectal cancer risk assessment.
CRC-P 3: Use of Anesthesia Professionals
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older and with an ASA Class of 1 or 2, where an anesthesia professional was utilized during the procedure.
CRC-P 4: Procedure-Related Complications
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older, where at least one procedure-related adverse event* occurred.
*Procedure-related adverse events include cardiopulmonary arrest, transfer to an acute care facility, dysrhythmia, perforation, major bleeding, severe pain, complications due to anesthesia, or unplanned surgery within 2 days of the procedure
CRC-P 5: Colonoscopy Assessment (Procedural Adequacy)
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older, where the entire colon was examined during the procedure and all polyps were removed.
CRC-P 6: Adenoma Detection Rate
The percentage of patients receiving a colonoscopy, aged 18 years or older, where at least one polyp was detected during the procedure.
