Description du projet
Réduire la morbidité cancéreuse chez les patients atteints de maladies mentales
Les personnes souffrant de problèmes de santé mentale sont confrontées à un risque élevé de cancer et de mortalité. En améliorant les parcours de soins et en mettant en œuvre des stratégies de prévention fondées sur des données probantes, nous pouvons réduire la morbidité due au cancer et améliorer les résultats en matière de santé. Le projet CO-CAPTAIN, financé par l’UE, vise à introduire une nouvelle solution en utilisant le modèle de navigation du patient (PNM). Cette approche permet de responsabiliser les patients, d’éliminer les obstacles au sein du système de santé, d’apporter un soutien social et de garantir un accès rapide aux services de prévention primaire. En recommandant l’inclusion du PNM dans les politiques de santé pour des parcours de soins intégrés, Co-CAPTAIN travaille à la réduction des disparités en matière de santé mentale, à l’amélioration de la santé globale et à l’allègement de la charge de morbidité liée au cancer. Co-CAPTAIN fait partie du groupe de la mission cancer de l’UE et se concentre sur la prévention et la détection précoce de cet ensemble de pathologies.
Objectif
Cancer and mental ill-health constitute leading public health problems in Europe, with more than 80 million people reporting mental health issues in Europe and around 4 million new cases of cancer diagnosed per year. People with mental ill-health, have higher cancer incidence and reported mortality, an excess linked to risky health behaviours as well as significant barriers experienced when accessing the often highly fragmented health care systems. Timely and evidence-based preventive strategies including optimizing health care pathways provide a solution to the high cancer morbidity and could improve overall health outcomes in this disadvantaged population. The aim of the Co-CAPTAIN project is to deliver an innovative solution based on the Patient Navigation Model. The Patient Navigation Model is an evidence-based patient-centred intervention which supports patient empowerment through removal of systemic barriers, providing social support and promoting timely access to primary prevention services. Co-CAPTAIN includes partner organizations with long-standing experience in the field of health and social care for people with mental ill-health in the south, east, northwest and central Europe, as well as academic institutions and local governments. Based on implementation science know-how and using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation as well as the Research and the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance frameworks, the Co-CAPTAIN project aims to reduce the gap in health inequalities for people with mental ill-health by reducing cancer burden and improving overall health, which will, in turn, reduce associated costs across health and social care systems in Europe. Moreover, the Co-CAPTAIN project aims to harness the transformative potential of the integrated care pathways in cancer as well as provide health and social care policy recommendations for the adoption and implementation of the Patient Navigation Model across Europe. This action is part of the Cancer Mission cluster of projects on ‘Prevention and early detection’.
