Key Points

The research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nurse navigator-led triaging in improving the management of suspected prostate cancer cases.
Implemented nurse navigator-led triaging for suspected prostate cancer cases.
Stratified cases based on clinical urgency and risk level.
Monitored imaging, biopsy diagnosis, and treatment timelines for high-risk patients.
Improved imaging times for high-risk prostate cancer patients.
Faster biopsy diagnosis compared to standard procedures.
Reduced overall treatment times for the most urgent cases.

Implication

Nurse navigator-led triaging enhances diagnosis and treatment efficiency for high-risk prostate cancer cases, indicating better clinical outcomes.

Abstract

Nurse navigator-led triaging and stratification of the most clinically urgent suspected PCa cases was associated with improved imaging, biopsy diagnosis, and treatment times for the highest-risk patients.
