Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most prevalent cancer in women. Pap smear and visual inspection acetic acid (VIA) are essential screening tests to early detect cervical cancer. However, the use of screening tests remained low among women of reproductive age in Nganjuk district, East Java. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of health education using flip chart and video on knowledge about early detection of cervical cancer among women of reproductive age in Nganjuk district, East Java. Subjects and Method: A randomized control trial conducted in Rejoso, Nganjuk, East Java, from October to November 2019. A sample of 120 women of reproductive age was randomized into two groups: (1) Experiment group that received health education using a flip chart and video, and (2) Control group that received no intervention. The dependent variable was knowledge of early detection of cervical cancer. The independent variable was health education using a flip chart and video. The data were collected using questionnaire. The data were analyzed by independent t-test. Results: After the intervention, knowledge about early detection of cervical cancer in the experimental group (Mean= 80.40; SD= 10.54) was higher than the control group (Mean= 70.53; SD= 9.68), and it was statistically significant (p <0.001). Conclusion: Health education using a flip chart and video is effective in improving knowledge about early detection of cervical cancer among women of reproductive age.

Introduction. According to modern data, cervical diseases do not occur by chance. Precancerous lesions vary from person to person and become invasive over time. The need for specific diagnostic methods for early detection of cervical cancer in women of reproductive age always remains relevant. Over the years, numerous diagnostic, cytological and histological studies have been carried out to identify malignant lesions of the cervix. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a widespread sexually transmitted infection that affects both women and men around the world and plays an important role in the development of cervical disease. It is the most common sexually transmitted virus in the United States of America. For the first time in 1942, Papanicolaou emphasized the possibility of using smears (PAP smears) from the cervix and from the vagina to diagnose cervical disease. PAP preparations of smears are mainly multilayered flat epithelial cells of the ectocervix and vagina, endocervical cylindrical cells, including mononuclear and polynuclear inflammatory cells that enter the vagina through diapedesis from the surface of the epithelial layer, mixing with the mucoid fluid produced by the endocervical epithelial fluid. Purpose — using objective criteria for cytological examination to identify neoplastic changes in the cervix. Materials and methods. The study included 100 women of reproductive age (18–45 years old) during 2015–2020. Of these, 20 were in the control group (group I — control) and 80 — in the high-risk group for cervical cancer (group II — the main group). Group II women were also divided into 2 subgroups: II A — with pathology of the cervix (n=41), II B — without pathology of the cervix (n=39). The study included patients with a positive result on HPV 16/18 including patients whose PAP smears revealed intracellular damage. Pap smears were included in the study according to the following criteria. The smears contained a sufficient number of squamous epithelial cells and their integrity was preserved. Endocervical cells were monitored in all PAP smears. The examination was carried out with at least 5 cells in each, not completely, and with 2 clusters of endocervical glandular or squamous metaplastic cells. Squamous epithelial cells covered at least 10% of the preparation. Bloody, technically artifactic preparations without clinical data have not been studied. The deficit rate did not exceed 3%, and high interest rates on artifacts were not included in the study. Despite the small number of cells in the presence of abnormal cells, this was unequivocally considered sufficient. Results. Interpretation of PAP smear results identified n=35 ASCUS patients, n=24 LSIL, n=21 HSIL patients in the PAP smear positive reproductive age group. HPV serotypes 16.18 were found in 24 of these patients. In women of the II B subgroup, no pathological changes in the cervix were observed. Conclusions. In women of reproductive age with positive HPV 16, 18, for the diagnosis of precancerous diseases of the cervix, taking pap smears is an integral part of the study. As a result of the study, it was revealed that, despite the absence of a clinical picture, pathological changes at the cell level are detected. Key words: HPV16, 18, ASCUS, LSIL, HSIL, PAP.

Cervical cancer is a malignant disease that remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among women in the world. In Indonesia, only 5% of women of reproductive age screen for cervical cancer. 76.6% of cervical cancer patients are detected with the disease when they entered the advanced stage. Early detection of cervical cancer is the key intervention in the reduction of incidence and mortality of cervical cancer. Other studies reported that the awareness of women of reproductive age to do cervical cancer screening is still very low due to a lack of knowledge about cervical cancer. This study aimed to determine the correlation of knowledge and participation in early detection of cervical cancer in women in reproductive age. This study used an analytical survey with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used incidental sampling with a total of 36 women in reproductive age. Data analysis used Chi-Square test. Statistical results showed that there was a significant correlation between knowledge of women in reproductive age about cervical cancer and participation in early detection of cervical cancer, which is p value = 0.020 ( 0.05) and coefficient of contingency (r) = 0.423. The level of closeness of the correlation is medium. Therefore, there is a need for tailored services that could improve knowledge of women in reproductive age about cervical cancer to improve participation with a view to preventing cervical cancer by early detection.

ABSTRACT Background: Cervical cancer ranked the fourth most cancer incidence in women. WHO announced that 311,000 women died from the disease in 2018. Cervical cancer screening uptake remains low, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This scoping review aimed to investigate the motivation for early detection of cervical cancer in women of reproductive age. Subjects and Method: A scoping review method was conducted in eight stages including (1) Identification of study problems; (2) Determining priority problem and study question; (3) Determining framework; (4) Literature searching; (5) Article selection; (6) Critical appraisal; (7) Data extraction; and (8) Mapping. The research question was identified using population, exposure, and outcome(s) (PEOS) framework. The search included PubMed, ResearchGate, and grey literature through the Google Scholar search engine databases. The inclusion criteria were English-language and full-text articles published between 2010 and 2020. A total of 275 articles were obtained by the searched database. After the review process, twelve articles were eligible for this review. The quality of searched articles was appraised by Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tools. The data were reported by the PRISMA flow chart. Results: Seven articles from developing countries (Jamaica, Nepal, Africa, Nigeria, Libya, and Uganda) and five articles from developed countries (England, Canada, Sweden, and Japan) met the inclusion criteria with cross-sectional studies. The selected existing studies discussed 3 main themes related to motivation to early detection of cervical cancer, namely sexual and reproductive health problems, diseases, and influence factors. Conclusion: Motivation for cervical cancer screening uptake is strongly related to the early detection of cervical cancer among reproductive-aged women. Client-centered counseling and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health education play an important role in delivering information about the importance of cervical cancer screening.

ABSTRACT Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer in women. Pap smear examination can detect early and prevent late diagnosis of cervical cancer. Perception of benefits is one of the constructs of the Health Belief Model that can predict women’s intention in having a Pap smear. This study aimed to examine the effect of perceived benefit on Pap smear uptake using a meta-analysis. Subjects and Method: A meta analysis was conducted by searching articles from PubMed, Springer Link, Google Scholar databases. Keywords used “Health Belief Model” OR “HBM” OR “Perceived Benefit” AND “Pap smear” OR “Pap Test”. The inclusion criteria were full text, articles published from 2014 to 2019, and using cross sectional study design. The articles were selected by PRISMA flow chart. The quantitative data were analyzed by RevMan 5.3. Results: There were 6 articles that met the criteria. This study reported that strong perceived benefit increased Pap smear uptake in women of reproductive age (aOR= 1.15; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.24; p<0.001) with I2 = 88%. Conclusion: Strong perceived benefit increases Pap smear uptake in women of reproductive age. Keywords: perceived benefit, pap smear, cervical cancer, health belief model Correspondence: Maranata.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and 70% of cancers occur in low- and middle-income countries. incidence rate of 17 per 100,000 women, new cases found 13.0% with a death rate of 10.3% per year of all cancer cases in women in the world. Cervical cancer is caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. HPV is a viral infection that attacks the reproductive tract. It takes 15 to 20 years for cervical cancer to develop in women with normal immune systems. IVA is an alternative screening examination to the pap smear because it is cheap, practical, very easy to do and simple equipment and can be done by health workers other than gynecologists. The IVA test was carried out by preparing 5% acetic acid and made on a cotton swap then a cotton swap was applied to the cervix and interpreted after 1 minute under bright light. The test is said to be positive if a white area is visible on the cervix. confusion about the importance of examinations, fear of the reality of the results faced, fear of feeling sick at the examination that will be faced, feeling reluctant to be examined by a male doctor or midwife and lack of family support, especially husbands. This research was conducted with a descriptive analytic research type with a cross sectional approach. The sample in this study were women of childbearing age aged 20-65 years. = 0.032 where p value> 0.05. with good knowledge of WUS, the desire to do early detection is also there as well as the attitude, if the attitude of WUS is positive, then do an IVA test. Therefore, knowledge and positive attitudes are very important for women women so that it will increase awareness and interest in women in early detection of cervical cancer. Women of reproductive age should get a lot of information about early detection and the role of health workers and their families is very important to be able to provide information and support for women of childbearing age to carry out early detection of cervical cancer.   Abstrak Kanker merupakan penyebab kematian tertinggi kedua secara global dan 70% kanker terjadi di negara-negara yang memiliki penghasilan rendah dan menegah. incidence rate 17 per 100.000 perempuan, kasus baru yang ditemukan 13,0% dengan jumlah kematian 10,3% per tahun dari seluruh kasus kanker pada perempuan di dunia. kanker serviks disebabkan oleh infeksi Human Papilomavirus (HPV). HPV merupakan infeksi virus yang menyerang saluran reproduksi. Dibutuhkan 15 hingga 20 tahun untuk kanker serviks untuk berkembang pada wanita dengan sistem kekebalan normal.  IVA merupakan pemeriksaan skrining alternatif dari pap smear karena murah, praktis, sangat mudah untuk dilakukan dan peralatan sederhana serta dapat dilakukan oleh tenaga kesehatan selain dokter ginekologi. Pemeriksaan IVA tes dilakukan dengan menyiapkan Asam asetat 5% dan dibuat pada cotton swap kemudian cotton swap dioleskan pada serviks dan diinterpretasikan setelah 1 menit di bawah cahaya terang. Tes dikatakan positif jika area putih terlihat pada serviks. keraguang akan pentingnya pemeriksaan, takut terhadap kenyataan akan hasil yang dihadapi, ketakukatan merasa sakit pada pemeriksaan yang akan dihadapi, rasa segan diperiksa dokter pria atau pun bidan dan kurangnya dukungan keluarga terutama suami. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan Jenis penelitian deskriptif analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Sampel dalam penelitian adalah wanita usia subur yang berusia 20-65 tahun Pengetahuan wanita usia subur ada hubungan dalam melakukan deteksi dini kanker serviks dengan IVA Tes dengan nilai p = 0.000 dimana nilai p > 0.05 dan adanya hubungan Sikap dengan deteksi dini kanker serviks dengan nilai p=0.032 dimana nilai p>0.05. dengan baikya pengetahuan  WUS maka keinginan untuk melakukan deteksi dini juga ada begitu juga dengan sikap, jika sikap WUS positif maka melakukan pemeriksaan IVA tes.  Oleh sebab itu pengetahuan dan sikap positif sangat penting dimiliki oleh WUS sehingga akan meningkatkan kesadaran dan  minat wus dalam  melakukan deteksi dini kanker serviks. Wanita Usia Subur harus mendapatkan banyak informasi tentang dekteksi dini dan peran petugas kesehatan dan juga keluarga sangat penting untuk dapat memberikan informasi dan dukungan bagi wanita usia subur untuk melakukan pemeriksaan deteksi dini kanker servik.
