Study Summary
The study is a cross-sectional survey study targeting patients aged 45-75 who had their screening or surveillance colonoscopy postponed or delayed due to the COVID pandemic. Study staff will survey a random subsample of patients to assess anxiety, COVID risk tolerance, cancer worry, willingness to screen and barriers to screening colonoscopy, and preference for colonoscopy and alternative colon cancer screening options. Eligible patients will be sent a survey packet in the mail that will include a cover letter, an information sheet describing the study, an incentive, and the survey. The cover letter will include information for participants to opt-out if they desire. Patients will be asked to complete the survey and return it back to study staff. Consent is implied with return of the survey. For the study, staff plan to invite 300 patients and expect to receive 195 completed surveys. Analyses will examine whether COVID-19 has changed patients' interest in colon cancer screening and the strength of patients' preferences for colonoscopy and other approaches to colon cancer screening. It will then examine factors associated with positive and negative views on rescheduling colonoscopies such as anxiety, worry, and risk perceptions.
