ObjectivesObjectives ä You should be capable to point out the most common neoplasm in different age groups classifying them by geographical areas. ä You will be capable to identify risk factors associated with the most common types of neoplasm and applying prevention strategy.

Cancer in KSA ä In general, in KSA almost all known cancers have been seen to occur, though with some variations. ä Most of the previous epidemiological studies on cancer in the kingdom had been based on reports from different regions. ä It is only recently during the past 8 years that a National Tumor Registry has taken over this task of collecting information from all over Saudi Arabia.

HOW TO CONTROL CANCER Putting Science into Practice
17
THE AIM OF CANCER CONTROL Reduction of Cancer Incidence, Morbidity & Mortality by: ä Prevention ä Early Diagnosis ä Treatment ä Palliative Care
18
THE W.H.O. PUBLIC HEALTH MODEL FOR CANCER CONTROL MODEL THE W.H.O. PUBLIC HEALTH MODEL FOR CANCER CONTROL MODEL ä Assess the magnitude of the cancer problem ä Evaluate possible strategies for cancer control ä Choose priorities for initial cancer control activities of prevention, screening, therapy and palliative care ä Set measurable cancer control objectives

PALLIATIVE CARE ä Palliative Medicine is the study and management of patients with active, progressive, far-advanced disease for whom the prognosis is limited and the focus of care is the quality of life. ” Doyle et al (Eds). Oxford Textbook of Palliative Medicine. P3. Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1996. Palliative Medicine Palliative Medicine
45
Cancer Prevention and Control e.g.: GOALS Health authorities may consider 1. Cancer Registry 2. Public education 3. Surgical Courses
46
SUMMARY SUMMARY ä Cancer is a Disease of Lifestyle With Both Host Resistance and Genetic Components ä 60-80% of the Risk factors for Cancer are Avoidable ä Putting Science Into Practice Leads to a Public Health Approach for Cancer Control Which Integrates Prevention, Screening, Treatment and Palliation at the National Level
47
ObjectivesObjectives ä You should be capable to point out the most common neoplasm in different age groups classifying them by geographical areas. ä You will be capable to identify risk factors associated with the most common types of neoplasm and applying prevention strategy.
