“…In the study of Makwe and Anorlu (2011), it was found that the participants did not consider to getting vaccinated with the HPV vaccine as they did not see themselves at risk for the HPV (Makwe and Anorlu, 2011). Additionally, in another study that was conducted with physicians, the physicians stated that they did not want to have HPV vaccine because of the low risk of HPV transmission (Topçu et al, 2018). Additionally, in this study, 37.8% of the participants stated that they wanted to have the HPV vaccine (Table 1).…”

“…This result shows that nurse academicians have high health beliefs about the HPV vaccine and encourage young people to be vaccinated. Çeşmeci et al (2015) reported that 89.4% of the intern doctors stated that they would be recommending HPV vaccine to their friends and relatives in the appropriate age group (Çeşmeci et al, 2015); Esposito et al (2007) reported that 84.8% of the healthcare professionals stated that they have been recommending HPV vaccine (Esposito et al, 2007); in another study it was reported that 85% of the obstetricians and 78% of the pediatricians-primary care physicians stated that they have been recommending HPV vaccine (Topçu et al, 2018). Realization of health protection and promotion behaviors and Individuals' beliefs are very important in maintaining.…”

“…Nurses, who have sufficient knowledge and competency about the HPV vaccine can identify and monitor the risk factors of cervical cancer about the people they serve, they may provide consultations, training, and guidance in respect thereof (Duval et al, 2009). The personal characteristics of healthcare professionals, the education they received, their knowledge about HPV, and their beliefs in respect of the HPV vaccine are key factors in the adoption of the vaccine by society (Topçu et al, 2018).…”

Objective: This study is carried out to determine the health beliefs of academician nurses regarding HPV (human papillomavirus) infection and HPV vaccine and the factors influencing these beliefs. Methods: This study, which has a descriptive and cross-sectional research design, was conducted with 201 academician nurses who have been actively working at universities in Turkey between August and October 2020. The research data were obtained using the Personal Information Form and the Health Belief Model Scale on the Human Papillomavirus Infection and Vaccination. Results: The “perceived susceptibility” of the participants, who were vaccinated with the HPV vaccine, was found to be high, whereas their “perceived barriers” were found to be low. Additionally, the “perceived susceptibility” of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since they were not in the risk group, was found to be low, whereas the “perceived barriers” of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since it is expensive, was found to be high. On the other hand, the “perceived benefits” of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if the vaccine were free of charge, were found to be high, whereas the “perceived susceptibility” of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if a considerable number of people get vaccinated, was found to be low. Conclusion: It has been concluded as a result of the study that strengthening the health beliefs of academician nurses about HPV vaccine would be effective in raising awareness about vaccination with the HPV vaccine.

“…Literatürden farklı olarak çalışmamızda, hekimlerin gerek kendilerine gerekse hastalarına aşı önermeleri konusunda aşının maliyetinin daha az öneme sahip olduğu dikkati çekmiştir. [11][12][13] Ülkemizde yapılan birçok anket çalışmasında, HPV aşısının hekimler tarafından sıklıkla önerildiği görülmekle birlikte, kişinin kendisine aşıyı yaptırma oranının genellikle daha düşük olduğu dikkat çekmektedir. [14][15][16] Bizim çalışmamızda ise, katılımcıların %15.3'ü HPV aşısını yaptırmıştı ve yine %84,7'si çocuğunu da aşılamayı planlıyordu.…”

Bu durumun pediatri uzmanlarının HPV aşısı hakkında daha fazla bilgi sahibi olabileceklerine ve aşı uygulama yaşı itibariyle bu grubun aşıyı daha fazla uygulatmasına bağlı olabileceği düşünülmüştür.…”

Objective: Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted viral infection worldwide. It is the cause of cervical cancer, and also causes many malignant, and benign diseases. Although it has an effectual vaccine, vaccination rates are still at an undesired level. In this cross-sectional study, it was aimed to investigate the knowledge and attitudes of pediatricians about HPV vaccine. Method: A questionnaire consisting of 18 questions about HPV disease and vaccine was applied to pediatricians working in our hospital via face-to-face interviews. Demographic characteristics, duration of their working in the field of pediatrics, and some questions and suggestions about HPV disease and vaccine were included in the questionnaire. Results: Ninety-eight (66.6%) out of 147 pediatricians participated in the questionnaire survey..The median age of the participants was 30.5 years (min-max: 25-66), and they were consisted mostly (70.4%).of female pediatricians. In terms of distribution of their academic positions, 54 (55.1%) of them were working as pediatric residents. Only 15.3% of the participants had received HPV vaccine. When questions about the vaccine were analyzed, 94.9% of the participants knew that the HPV vaccine was not included in the national vaccination schedule, 64.3% knew the recommended vaccination age, and 84.7% knew that application gender of the vaccine. Some ( 60.2%) participants recommended HPV vaccine to their patients. When pediatricians were asked why they did not recommend the vaccine, according to their responses, the most important factor was the fact that had not sufficient knowledge about the vaccine (14.3%) and had not encountered a patient within the indication (14.3%).The vaccine recommendation rates of the vaccinated physicians were statistically significantly higher than unvaccinated physicians (p=0.028).There was no statistically significant difference between medical experience and recommendation for HPV vaccine beforehand and knowing the names of HPV vaccines (p=0.316, p=0.414, respectively). Conclusion: Although the overall attitude towards HPV vaccination was generally positive in our study, additional training should be provided to both pediatricians and healthcare professionals in order to achieve higher HPV vaccination coverage rates in Turkey.

Background/Aim: The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted disease and has been shown to cause cancer. Both sexes have a lifetime risk of at least 50% of exposure to HPV. Male HPV vaccinations can yield advantages for both the individual and community, including reduced transmission of HPV and protection of male and female health. The approval of vaccinations is mainly influenced by parental perspectives on this matter. It is essential to examine the subject in terms of physicians, who have the highest knowledge about HPV in society. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate physicians' attitudes and knowledge about vaccinating their male children against the human papillomavirus. Methods: A total of 1670 physicians were included in this study. Working as a physician and having a son were determined as inclusion criteria. A digital questionnaire was given to the physicians participating in the study. The answers to the survey questions were rated on a 4-point Likert scale (agree, do not know, disagree, strongly disagree). The responses were compared with the variables, and statistical analysis was performed. Results: Of the physicians participating in the study, 34.4% were male and 65.6% were female. A small percentage of the physicians (6.2%) reported that they would vaccinate their boys against HPV, and 59.9% of them indicated that they would not but they would consider it. The physicians’ who were most likely to vaccinate their sons worked in the fields of radiology (97.3%), orthopedics (80%), and gynecology (78.8%). It was determined that the physicians who said they would never have their sons vaccinated against HPV were most frequently specialists in anesthesiology and reanimation, infectious diseases, and clinical microbiology. Conclusions: This study determined that physicians in some specialties hesitated to give the HPV vaccine to their sons. The HPV vaccine is crucial for boys, and it is essential to point out the significance of providing seminars to physicians, particularly in developing nations like Turkey, regarding this issue and its consequences.
