A multistage evaluation of alternative tests was performed. Firstly, four tests with different faecal collection approaches were assessed: a focus group recommended further investigation of a wipe gFOBT. Secondly, 100 faecal samples were analysed using two wipe tests and the routine gFOBT: no differences were found. Thirdly, a wipe gFOBT was introduced. Over 21 months, 400 requests were made and 311 wipe kit sets were submitted for analysis: 153 (49.2%) were negative, 21 (6.8%) positive (all 3 kits positive), 96 (30.9%) weak positive (1 or 2 positive) and 41 (13.2%) un-testable. Forty-three participants were referred for colonoscopy. Outcome data were provided on 39 participants: nine declined colonoscopy, two were judged unsuitable, two did not attend, two were already in follow-up, 13 had normal colonoscopy and two normal barium enema, two had diverticular disease, two had a metaplastic polyp, four had a low-risk adenoma and one had a high-risk adenoma. No participant had cancer. Detection of significant neoplasia was small. The use of the wipe gFOBT was ceased: it cannot be recommended as a screening test for bowel cancer. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/jms.2010.010048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,24]],"date-time":"2011-01-24T00:17:48Z","timestamp":1295828268000},"page":"211-213","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Experience with a wipe guaiac-based faecal occult blood test as an alternative test in a bowel screening programme"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"C G","family":"Fraser","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Bowel Screening Centre Laboratory, Kings Cross, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P J","family":"McDonald","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Bowel Screening Centre Laboratory, Kings Cross, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L","family":"Colford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Bowel Screening Centre, Kings Cross, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A","family":"Irvine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Bowel Screening Centre, Kings Cross, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Kenicer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NHS Tayside, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Morton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Colorectal Cancer Screening Pilot, National Services Division, Edinburgh, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Birrell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scottish Bowel Screening Programme, National Services Division, Edinburgh, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R J C","family":"Steele","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Dundee, Dundee, Scotland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr-JMS-10048C1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.317.7158.559"},{"key":"bibr-JMS-10048C2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.2008.162883"},{"key":"bibr-JMS-10048C3","unstructured":"Bowel Screening: Scottish Bowel Screening Programme.
