Background:
The revised Bethesda guidelines (rBG) are generally used for screening of Lynch syndrome, and few researchers have investigated the associations between microsatellite instability (MSI) status and each item of the rBG.
Patients And Methods:
This retrospective study included patients with colorectal cancer who were classified into those fulfilling the rBG (Bethesda group) and those not (control group). The breakdown of each item in the rBG and predictors of high MSI (MSI-H) were determined in the Bethesda group.
Results:
Of 809 consecutive patients, 161 (19.9%) were found to fulfil the rBG criteria. As a predictor of MSI-H, items 2 or 5 of the rBG showed a sensitivity of 93.3%. Item 5 and right-sided tumour location were independent predictors of MSI-H in patients fulfilling the rBG (odds ratio(OR)=4.49 and 25.1; p=0.0260 and <0.0001, respectively).
Conclusion:
Item 5 of the rBG and right-sided tumour location are significant predictors of MSI-H.

01:11Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

01:26Guidelines for Nursing Documentation II
Timely documentation is crucial to ensure continuity of care for patients. Any delays in recording or reporting medical information can result in medical errors and even adverse patient outcomes. From medication administration to diagnostic test results, every detail must be accurately and promptly documented to provide the best possible care for patients.
