Every Local Sanitary Unit (USL) of the Tuscan Region was contacted to define screening variables, such as adequacy of the staff involved in prevention, smear technique, data collection and evaluation, laboratory quality control, and modalities of invitations to screening. The reported data show that 21 of 40 USL, but only 9 of 28 USL outside the Florence province (where a common screening program is performed), are performing active invitations to screening. The most serious staff inadequacies concern data evaluation and personnel performing the test. Sixteen of 28 USL outside Florence suggest an annual rescreening, which causes overcrowding of services and a poor availability for the unscreened population. Moreover, the poor quality of data collection makes it impossible to evaluate the benefit offered by the screening programs in the 28 USL outside Florence. Cytologic quality control is often lacking, and the smear technique is inadequate in 10 of 28 USL outside Florence. The lack in the USL of epidemiologic competence and of cost/benefit considerations and the need for political decisions about cancer prevention programs are stressed.
