Validated tools measuring women's satisfaction in breast cancer screening programmes: A systematic review.

Validated tools measuring women's satisfaction in breast cancer screening programmes: A systematic review. Breast. 2018 Mar 10;39:33-38 Authors: Deandrea S, Salakari M, Neamţiu L, Ulutürk A, Lerda D, Pylkkänen L Abstract International guidelines recommend assessing women's satisfaction with breast cancer screening programmes; however, validated tools are needed. A systematic review to identify and evaluate the quality of validated instruments for screening satisfaction, from 01/1965 until 11/2017 was performed. From 3283 individual citations, six instruments were identified. Evaluation of the MammoGraphy Questionnaire using the COSMIN checklist resulted in 'good' to 'excellent' scores in most assessed domains, while the other tools were mostly 'poor'/'fair' quality or did not provide enough information for assessment. Nevertheless, substantial changes in screening processes and programmes have been implemented in recent years. Thus, further development work is needed.
