Familial Breast Cancer Questionnaire
Family Medical Practice On-Line, 06/30/09
Alex G - A questionnaire has been formulated based on the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines. It seeks to identify all women that have more than 3% 10-year risk of developing breast cancer in view of their family history. Its objective is to help women with a family history of breast or ovarian cancer to find out for themselves prior to making a general practitioner appointment whether they could be at increased risk of developing breast cancer. The questionnaire could be made available as a leaflet to any health related service like the GP Surgery, Community clinics or Well woman clinics. After going through the questionnaire an informed decision could be made whether or not to see their general practitioner for risk assessment and/or appropriate referral.
