About this trial
The goal of this single-arm, multi-centre feasibility study is to assess the efficacy, feasibility and acceptability of implementing patient navigation across Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) screening services in England to increase uptake of bowel cancer screening. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Do service users complete a bowel cancer screening within three months of receiving patient navigation? * Do service deliverers consider patient navigation as feasible to implement in practice? * Do service users consider patient navigation acceptable to receive during their AAA appointment? Participants will be asked to discuss bowel screening with AAA practitioners (patient navigation). Follow-up surveys and interviews will be conducted with those that delivered the intervention and with those that received it.

Feasibility of delivering patient navigation (survey)
Survey with those who delivered patient navigation. Survey contains 7 items: 2 demographic questions, 2 items on a 3-point Likert scale (with option to provide further detail in open text), 2 open text responses, and one dichotomous item (Yes/No). The Likert scales are scored where 1 is low and 3 is high.
Time frame
0-5 months post patient navigation delivery2
Feasibility of delivering patient navigation (Interviews)
Semi-structured interviews with those who delivered patient navigation
Time frame
0-5 months post patient navigation delivery3
Acceptability of receiving patient navigation (Survey)
Survey with service users who received patient navigation. Survey contains 12 items: 4 demographic questions, 5 items on a 5-point Likert scale, and 3 open text responses. The Likert scales are scored where 1 is high and 5 is low.
