National Lung cancer audit report shows care continues to improve
Lung cancer patients in Great Britain are benefiting from improved treatment and care – including a higher rate of curative surgery – thanks in part to the continued commitment of clinical staff to a major national audit.
Data developed for the first time through the National Lung Cancer Audit has played a major part in helping healthcare organisations understand and improve the standard of care they offer and, ultimately, patient outcomes.
Eight years on from the first audit publication, today's latest report is based on data for 38,500 patients first seen in 2011 in Great Britain. This represents about 93 per cent of new cases expected for this period and is thought to cover almost all cases of lung cancer presenting to secondary care.
