Abstract:
The National Cancer Data Base, a joint project of the American Cancer Society and the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer, provides a mechanism for periodic assessment of hospital-based cancer patient care. From the National Cancer Data Base's annual summary, health care professionals can evaluate trends in patient care to make more efficient treatment decisions. This article provides a first look at highlights of the 1995 annual summary.
