Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: The target group for this study includes individuals who participated in the national CRC screening program and had an positive FIT result followed by a negative colonoscopy 2 or 5 years ago (calculated from 2025). Individuals who participated in the national CRC screening program 10 years ago belong to the control group and screened occurring to regular care by the screening organization. The inclusion criterion is age until 75 years old. 

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Age = 75

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. FIT referral rate (number of FITs positives) per interval (2, 5 of 10 years) 2. Detection rate of FIT  3. Positive predictive value of FIT per interval based on old definitions3. Positive predictive value of FIT per interval based on new definitions  

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
3. Association between sex, age, FIT Hb concentration in FIT in previous  invitation rounds, and FIT Hb concentration in current invitation rounds in relation to the yield per invitation round 4. Perception and experience of individuals with regard to acceptability and willingness to participate with screening at different invitation intervals. 5. Long-term effects such as (incremental) costs, quality-adjusted life years, the required colonoscopy capacity per invitation interval
