常规的数据收集工作是几乎所有癌症研究和预防工作中必要的、往往被忽视的组成部分。公共卫生癌症监测数据对于确定需求、规划干预措施、引导公共卫生资源以及评估旨在预防或治疗癌症及其负面健康后果的倡议的整体有效性至关重要。作为国家的健康保护机构,疾病控制和预防中心(CDC)为疾病监测系统提供资源,以帮助保护我们的国家免受昂贵和危险的健康威胁,包括癌症。因此,公共卫生监测是疾控中心的核心职能。在这篇文章中,我们简要描述了疾控中心在我们的公共卫生项目中对癌症监测的方法,以及其他监测癌症相关结果的联邦倡议。我们还介绍了我们主要的癌症发病率监测系统--国家癌症登记计划,并讨论了该计划的关键癌症数据的用途和应用。
Routine data collection efforts are a necessary, often underappreciated, component of nearly all cancer research and prevention efforts. Public health cancer surveillance data are crucial for identifying needs, planning interventions, directing public health resources, and evaluating the overall effectiveness of initiatives aimed at preventing or treating cancer and its negative health consequences. As the nation’s health protection agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides resources for disease surveillance systems to help protect our nation against expensive and dangerous health threats, including cancer. Therefore, public health surveillance is a core function of CDC. In this article we briefly describe CDC’s approach to cancer surveillance in our public health programs and other federal initiatives to monitor cancer-related outcomes. We also describe our premier cancer incidence surveillance system, the National Program of Cancer Registries, and discuss uses and applications of the program’s critical cancer data.
