“…The category of risk perception included the impact of age on risk perception, women’s views of preventive efforts, and knowledge about cervical cancer and screening. In our study, this category was found to be an important motivator to attend cervical screening, as has been shown in previous research [ 37 , 38 ]. It has previously been reported that older Norwegian women in Norway perceive themselves to be at low risk of sexually transmitted cervical infections, and thus delay their attendance at screening [ 39 ], which is consistent with the reasoning of our Norwegian participants.…”

IntroductionDanish and Norwegian immigrant women in Sweden have an increased risk of cervical cancer compared to Swedish-born women. In addition, Danish and Norwegian immigrant women follow the national recommendations for attendance at cervical screening to much lesser extent than Swedish-born women. The aim of this study was to explore how Danish and Norwegian immigrant women in Sweden reason about attending cervical screening, focusing on women’s perceptions as to why they and their compatriots do not attend.MethodsEight focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted with Danish and Norwegian immigrant women living in Stockholm. The women were between 26 and 66 years of age at the time of the FGDs, and were aged between <1 and 48 years old when they immigrated to Sweden. A FGD guide was used, which included questions related to cervical screening, and obstacles and motivators to attend cervical screening. The FGDs were tape recorded and transcribed, and the results analysed according to the principles of qualitative content analysis.ResultsThe main theme was “Women have a comprehensive rationale for postponing cervical screening, yet do not view themselves as non-attenders”. Investigation of women’s rationale for non-attendance after being invited to cervical screening revealed some complex reasons related to immigration itself, including competing needs, organisational and structural factors and differences in mentality, but also reasons stemming from other factors. Postponing attendance at cervical screening was the category that linked all these factors as the reasons to why women did not attend to cervical screening according to the recommendations of the authorities.ConclusionsThe rationale used to postpone cervical screening, in combination with the fact that women do not consider themselves to be non-attenders, indicates that they have not actively taken a stance against cervical screening, and reveals an opportunity to motivate these women to attend.

Health professionals’ dealing with hope in palliative patients with cancer, an explorative qualitative research

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Hope is important for individuals with cancer in palliative care. Health professionals' perspective on hope affects the communication with palliative patients. The aim of this study was to explore how Dutch health professionals deal with palliative patients with cancer who hope for prolongation of life. Focus group discussions (FGD) were conducted. An interpretive description approach was used to understand the interpretation of and reaction to hopefulness in palliative patients with cancer by health professionals. Three FGDs were held, each consisting of five to ten health professionals working with palliative patients recruited in a general Dutch hospital and homecare organisation. The ways in which the participating health professionals interpret hope in palliative individuals with cancer and their behaviour towards these hopeful palliative patients are shaped by their reliance on their own normative ideas. Patients' hopefulness generally violates these norms and is, therefore, considered a problem that requires intervention. Hope that does not correspond with the medical facts is experienced as problematic by Dutch health professionals who therefore believe they should intervene and do something about it. Health professionals are challenged to face and address patients' and families' perceptions of hope, especially when those perceptions might differ from their own as professionals.

Raktažodžiai: gimdos kaklelio vėžys, žmogaus papilomos virusas, prevencija, žmogaus papilomos viruso vakcina Santrauka Tyrimo tikslas -įvertinti moterų žinias apie gimdos kaklelio vėžio rizikos veiksnius ir žmogaus papilomos viruso vakciną. Pagal specialiai šiam tyrimui parengtą 17 klausimų anketą tiriamųjų apklausa atlikta 2016 m. gruodžio -2017 m. vasario mėnesiais Viešojoje įstaigoje Šeškinės poliklinika (toliau -Poliklinika). Iš viso tyrime dalyvavo 203 18-72 metų amžiaus respondentės. Dažniausiai nurodyti gimdos kaklelio vėžio rizikos veiksniai: žmogaus papilomos viruso infekcija (70,9 proc.), lytiškai plintančios ligos (78,3 proc.) ir anksčiau atliktame gimdos kaklelio tepinė-lyje buvę pakitimai (57,6 proc.). Reguliariai dėl gimdos kaklelio vėžio tikrinosi 71,4 proc. moterų. 58,1 proc. respondenčių žinojo, kad žmogaus papilomos viruso vakcina įtraukta į Lietuvos Respublikos vaikų profilaktinių skiepijimų kalendorių. Daugiausia moterų apie gimdos kaklelio vėžio rizikos veiksnius suži-nojo iš gydytojo (šeimos gydytojo, gydytojo akušerio-ginekologo) (42,9 proc.), apie žmogaus papilomos viruso vakciną -iš žiniasklaidos (67,8 proc.). 71,9 proc. tyrime dalyvavusių moterų buvo nusiteikusios prieš skiepijimą savo dukrų žmogaus papilomos viruso vakcina. Neskiepijimo priežastys: neturi pakankamai informacijos apie žmogaus papilomos viruso vakciną (23,3 proc.); bijo galimų nepageidaujamų reiškinių (19,2 proc.); nežinojo, kad yra tokie skiepai (10,3 proc.). Respondentės, kurios informaciją apie žmogaus papilomos viruso vakciną gavo iš medicinos personalo, 5,31 kartus dažniau pritarė skiepijimui (ŠS=5,31; PI 95%: 2,23-12,70; p=0,001). ĮvadasGimdos kaklelio vėžys (toliau -GKV) -viena aktualiausių moterų sveikatos problemų ne tik pasaulyje, bet ir MOTERŲ ŽINIOS APIE GIMDOS KAKLELIO VĖŽIO RIZIKOS VEIKSNIUS IR ŽMOGAUS PAPILOMOS VIRUSO VAKCINĄ
