“…8 Cervical cancer is becoming more prevalent among women aged 30-65, who account for 79% of cases and 65.8% of annual deaths. 8,9 The main problems related to cervical cancer screening were a lack of awareness about the disease process, unsatisfactory pap smear testing, and the client's negative attitude toward the procedure. Lack of awareness of available screening methods, in addition to a lack of knowledge, can play a significant role in the failure to use cervical cancer screening programs.…”

Background: The fourth most common cancer in women worldwide is cervical cancer. Over 87% of deaths from cervical cancer occur in developing nations. One of the risks of developing cervical cancer is the use of oral contraceptives. However, there is limited evidence on the knowledge, attitude, and practice of cervical cancer screening among family planning service users in Ethiopia. Objective: To assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice toward cervical cancer screening and its associated factors among family planning service users. Methods: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January 1 to February 28, 2023. A total of 816 participants were selected using a systematic sampling technique. Data were collected using a pretested, structured, and interviewer-administered questionnaire. The collected data were entered into EPI Data 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 24 (IBM, Armonk, NY, USA) for analysis. Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors. An odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval and a p-value < 0.05 were used to declare statistical significance. Results: Overall, 42.5%, 36.6%, and 20.1% of the participants had good knowledge, a positive attitude, and practiced cervical cancer screening, respectively. Being single (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 3.39, 95% confidence intervals: 1.15–6.26), having college or university level of education (AOR = 8.03, 95% confidence intervals: 3.45–19.23), having a family history of cervical cancer (AOR = 3.14, 95% confidence intervals: 1.82–8.84), and having a source of information from the media (AOR = 1.74, 95% confidence intervals: 1.09–2.54) were significantly associated with good knowledge of cervical cancer screening. Women who were aged 15–23 years (AOR = 5.62, 95% confidence intervals: 2.76–14.56), had college- or university-level education (AOR = 3.69, 95% confidence intervals: 1.65–8.22), and had good knowledge of cervical cancer (AOR = 4.71, 95% confidence intervals: 3.08–7.55) were significantly associated with a positive attitude toward cervical cancer screening. An earlier age of first sexual intercourse (AOR = 5.0, 95% confidence intervals: 3.80–9.20) and good knowledge of cervical cancer (AOR = 1.52, 1.21–5.82) were positively associated with good practice of cervical cancer screening. Women who attended high school were negatively associated with good practice in cervical cancer screening (AOR = 0.46, 0.23–0.73). Conclusion: Knowledge, attitude, and practice toward cervical cancer screening were low. As a result, during patient visits for care delivery, healthcare providers should inform and educate patients about cervical cancer screening.

“…Las tasas de incidencia del cáncer de cuello uterino están disminuyendo en áreas de altos recursos, mientras que las tasas de incidencia, prevalencia y mortalidad siguen aumentando en los países de ingresos bajos y medianos (Desta et al, 2022). Esta enfermedad tumoral maligna y por ende de difícil e imposible curación, es el resultado de un proceso evolutivo que sigue una serie de pasos sucesivos basados en la existencia de un largo periodo entre la exposición a un carcinógeno y el desarrollo de una neoplasia (Marañón Cardonne et al, 2017).…”

El cáncer de cuello uterino es un problema de salud pública alarmante, su etiología se explica en la asociación con el papiloma virus humano (VPH), es uno de los cánceres prevenibles, detectables y tratables; esto constituye una experiencia extremadamente estresante y supone una carga enorme de angustia y sufrimiento que traen consigo una serie de trastornos físicos y emocionales y modificaciones drásticas en el estilo de vida, las costumbres, la vida laboral y familiar de quien la padece. El objetivo fue describir las experiencias relacionadas en el ámbito personal, familiar y social de las mujeres que padecen cáncer de cuello uterino. Investigación cualitativa fenomenológica, participaron 10 mujeres con diagnóstico confirmado, seleccionadas por muestreo en cadena, bola de nieve. Se realizó entrevistas gravadas con preguntas abiertas en base a las dimensiones y subdimensiones, previa aplicación del consentimiento informado y firmado; luego fueron desgravadas y analizadas. Los resultados se presentan agrupados en la matriz según dimensiones y demuestran que las mujeres tienen experiencias similares y diferentes en todas las áreas analizadas. Se concluye que la confirmación de un diagnóstico de cáncer de cuello uterino afecta a las mujeres tanto en el ámbito personal, familiar y social; se requiere crear espacios de educación, promoción, consejería y apoyo para mujeres con diagnóstico de cáncer de cuello uterino.

This particular study aimed to assess the magnitude of cervical cancer screening service utilization and associated factors among eligible women attending maternal health services at Adare General Hospital, Hawassa city, Southern Ethiopia, 2022. Institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted using a systematic random sampling technique among 299 eligible women from March 1- to April 30, 2022. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews using a pretested structured questionnaire. Data was also entered into Epi-data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 25.0 for analysis. Both bivariable and multi-variable logistic regression model was fitted and the presence of association was declared at a p value of less than 0.05. The strenth of association was determined using adjusted odd ratios together with a 95% confidence interval. Among interviewed women, 19.8% (95% CI 15.5%, 24.0%) of them had screened for cervical cancer at least once within the past five years. Place of residence (AOR = 0.37; 95% CI 0.14–0.96), modern contraception use (AOR = 2.49; 95% CI 1.04–5.96), discussion about cervical cancer with healthcare providers (AOR = 2.34; 95% CI 1.08–5.07), and comprehensive knowledge about cervical cancer (AOR = 0.25; 95% CI 0.10–0.62) were independently associated with cervical cancer screening service utilization. The study depicted relatively low utilization of cervical cancer screening services. The women were more likely to utilize the service if they are dwellers of urban residences, used modern contraception, had discussion about cervical cancer with healthcare providers, and had good comprehensive knowledge about cervical cancer. Thus, women living in rural areas should get more emphasis on cervical cancer prevention strategies, and improving consistent discussion about cervical cancer with clients visiting for maternal health services by healthcare providers in health facilities also be recommended.
