癌症幸存者的人口正在增长，全科医生在他们的护理中发挥着越来越大的作用。全科医学研究数据库被用来比较癌症幸存者和对照组之间的就诊率。与对照组相比，乳腺癌和结直肠癌幸存者在确诊后5年内每年多就诊一次；在确诊后10年，这一比率趋于一致。前列腺癌幸存者每年持续咨询的次数比对照组多三次。这些增加的就诊率正在对服务能力造成影响。
The population of cancer survivors is growing, and GPs have an increasing role in their care. The General Practice Research Database was used to compare consultation rates between cancer survivors and controls. Breast and colorectal cancer survivors had one more consultation per year compared with controls up to 5 years after diagnosis; rates then converged at 10 years post-diagnosis. Prostate cancer survivors consistently consulted up to three more times per year than controls. These increased consultation rates are leading to an impact on service capacity.
