SEER护理模式研究描述、描述并比较了美国不同地理区域的癌症实践模式和治疗方法。进行SEER护理模式/护理质量研究是为了满足国会对国家癌症研究所的指示(根据1988年11月4日通过的公法100-607，第413 (a)（2)(C)节），以“评估将最先进的癌症治疗纳入临床实践以及癌症患者接受此类治疗的程度，并将此类评估结果纳入两年一次的报告……”。为了选择符合这一指令的癌症，癌症控制和人口科学司一直在与癌症治疗司密切合作。今年的护理模式（POC）研究将调查以下部位癌症患者的最先进治疗方法：所有年龄段的肉瘤以及15-39岁的非霍奇金淋巴瘤、霍奇金淋巴瘤、急性淋巴细胞白血病和女性乳腺癌。

SEER Patterns of Care Studies describe, characterize, and compare practice patterns and treatments provided for cancer in different geographic areas of the United States. SEER Patterns of Care/Quality of Care Studies are conducted to satisfy a Congressional directive (under Public Law 100-607, Sec. 413 (a)(2)(C) adopted November 4, 1988) to the National Cancer Institute to “assess the incorporation of state-of-the-art cancer treatments into clinical practice and the extent to which cancer patients receive such treatments and include the results of such assessment in the biennial reports…”. To select the cancers to satisfy this directive, the Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences has been working closely with the Division of Cancer Treatment. This year’s Pattern’s of Care (POC) Study shall investigate state-of-the-art therapies for patients with cancers of sites: sarcoma for all ages and for ages 15-39 non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia and female breast cancer.
