First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 01, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looked at whether providing support for unmet basic needs—like food, housing, or transportation—helps low-income women attend their colposcopy appointment after an abnormal cervical cancer screening. The trial planned to enroll 72 participants but was stopped early with only 3 enrolled. The goal was to see if a social needs navigator program could improve show rates compared to usual care.
