The objective of this scoping review is to identify barriers and facilitators for low-dose computed tomography lung cancer screening uptake and adherence among rural populations in the United States.Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, and cancer patients from rural areas have poorer outcomes than those from metropolitan areas. Evidence exists that lung cancer screening by low-dose computed tomography significantly increases survival time but is also significantly underutilized.Studies completed in the United States with adults who fit United States Preventive Services Task Force guidelines for lung cancer screening and who live in rural areas will be included. Studies published in English since 2013 that report on barriers and facilitators for low-dose computed tomography lung cancer screening uptake and adherence will be included in this review. Quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods studies will be included, along with opinion pieces published by government agencies or professional cancer-related organizations.The search strategy will locate published primary studies, reviews, and opinion papers, including those by government and nonprofit agencies focused on cancer. The databases to be searched include MEDLINE, CINAHL Complete, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. Gray literature databases and sources of unpublished studies will also be searched. Independent reviewers will be used throughout the search and selection process. |
