| Scientific title | Evaluation of guidelines for the referral and management of breast disorders: a pragmatic practice-based randomised trial |
| Study objectives | The aim of this project is to implement and evaluate existing national guidelines for referral and management of breast disorders. Evaluation will be via a pragmatic practice based randomised trial. The guidelines include algorithms for the management of breast pain/diffuse lumpiness and breast lumps. A preliminary study will measure women's and GP's perceptions of risk for these presentations and the practical basis for a risk communication package will be developed. This will be followed by a practice based randomised trial in Wales. |
