Abstract

Amaç: Bu makalenin amacı, kadın hemşireler arasında serviks kanseri tarama ve insan papilloma virüsü (HPV) farkındalık düzeyini ve bilgi ve uygulamalarını etkileyen olası faktörleri araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Türkiye'deki iki hastanede çalışan hemşirelere, dört bölümden oluşan bir anket formunu elektronik ortamda yanıtlamaları istenerek kesitsel bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Anket, HPV bulaşma, aşılanma ve önleme yöntemleri, serviks kanseri risk faktörleri ve semptomları gibi konulara odaklanan 27 sorudan oluşmaktadır. Toplam 260 hemşire çalışmaya katılmış ve sürekli değişkenler için ortalama ve standart sapma, kategorik değişkenler için ise frekans ve yüzde gibi betimsel istatistikler rapor edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların %35.4'ünün jinekolojik muayene yapılması konusunda tereddütleri olduğunu ve %64.6'sının son beş yıl içinde smear testi yaptırmadığını göstermiştir. Ayrıca, %75.4'ünün son beş yıl içinde HPV testi yaptırmadığı saptanmıştır. Yaşın ilerlemesiyle birlikte, HPV farkındalığı, smear ve HPV testleri sıklığı artmakta ve bu farkın istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu bulunmuştur. Hastane tipi ile HPV aşısı hakkındaki bilgi arasında istatistiksel bir ilişki bulunmamışken, evli olan hemşireler aşı hakkında daha fazla bilgi sahibi olmuş ve bekâr hemşirelere göre daha sık smear ve HPV testi yaptırmışlardır.
Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın bulguları, serviks kanseri önleme ve tarama programlarını geliştirmeye, HPV farkındalığını artırmaya ve kadınlar için daha iyi sağlık sonuçlarını teşvik etmeye yardımcı olabilir.

Assessment of cervical cancer screening and human papillomavirus awareness among female nurses

Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this article is to investigate the level of cervical cancer screening and human papillomavirus (HPV) awareness among female nurses and potential factors that influence their knowledge and practices.
Material and Methods: A cross-sectional survey comprising of a self-administered questionnaire in four parts was distributed to nurses employed in two hospitals located in Turkey. The questionnaire included 27 items focused on topics including HPV transmission, vaccination, and prevention methods, cervical cancer risk factors, and symptoms. A total of 260 nurses participated in the study, and descriptive statistics were reported, including mean and standard deviation for continuous variables and frequency and percentage for categorical variables.
Results: The results showed that 35.4% of participants had reservations about undergoing a gynecological examination, and 64.6% had not undergone a smear test within the last five years. Moreover, 75.4% had not undergone an HPV test within the last five years. With increasing age, awareness of HPV, frequency of undergoing smear and HPV tests increased, and this difference was found to be statistically significant. No statistical relationship was found between hospital type and knowledge about HPV vaccination, while married nurses had more knowledge about the vaccine and underwent smear and HPV tests more frequently than single nurses.
Conclusion: The findings from this study may help improve cervical cancer prevention and screening programs, enhance HPV awareness, and promote better health outcomes for women.
