Abstract

Objective(s): To investigate about women’s KNOWLEDGE on CERVICAL CANCER and to examine the effect of EDUCATIONAL MATERIALs on their KNOWLEDGE. Methods: This was an interventional study conducted in Tehran. Sixty-six subjects were selected by non-random sampling (convenience) method from patients attending a gynecologic clinic. Data were collected by two questionnaires (before and after study). Data on KNOWLEDGE were related to: prevalence, risk factors, symptoms and prevention of CERVICAL CANCER before the study commence. Then, the subjects received the EDUCATIONAL MATERIALs and replied to another questionnaire. Results: The mean age of the respondents was 38.8 years (SD=±10.7). Before the intervention 44% of women knew nothing about CERVICAL CANCER and the remaining (56%) had poor KNOWLEDGE. 38% of women did not know PAP SMEAR and 58.5% of women who knew PAP SMEAR did not know the correct time for the test. After intervention; KNOWLEDGE of women (70-77%) was increased about CERVICAL CANCER, risk factors, disease signs and PAP SMEAR; and 97% recommended this EDUCATIONAL MATERIALs to others. Conclusion: Study findings indicate that educational interventions for increasing KNOWLEDGE of women is effective and might have an important role for decreasing incidence of the disease.
