WE NEED A NATIONAL BLADDER CANCER AUDIT
A national audit collects information about care pathways and cancer treatment outcomes and addresses regional variation.
- 21,185 people in the UK are diagnosed with bladder cancer each year
- More than 50% of people have never heard of bladder cancer before their diagnosis
- More than 49% of patients receive insufficient information when diagnosed
If we collect better data about bladder cancer, we can improve the lives of thousands of people.
- National cancer audits make real improvements to patient outcomes
- National cancer audits identify and reduce over-treatment and under-treatment
