Preventive Healthcare Services

Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:

Primary Healthcare Services

Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.

Summary

Family medicine educators show increased intent to offer self-sampling for cervical cancer screening. This approach, using primary human papillomavirus (HPV) testing, is equivalent to invasive exams and addresses screening gaps.

Area of Science:

  • Family Medicine
  • Oncology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Cervical cancer screening rates are low, with many diagnosed women never screened.
  • Self-sampling for human papillomavirus (HPV) testing is a viable alternative to speculum exams.
  • Evaluating knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards self-sampling is crucial for implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess family medicine educators' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding self-sampled primary HPV testing.
  • To understand factors influencing the adoption of self-sampling for cervical cancer screening.
  • To identify potential barriers and facilitators for implementing this screening method.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey of the Council of Academic Family Medicine's general membership.
  • Questions assessed knowledge based on USPSTF guidelines and attitudes/beliefs using Question-Behavior Theory.
  • Surveys were distributed via email with multiple reminders to maximize response rate.

Main Results:

  • A 62% response rate (744 respondents) was achieved.
  • Significant shift in intended behavior towards offering self-sampling (p < 0.001), with 88% of initially hesitant respondents changing their minds.
  • Lower baseline knowledge of HPV screening advantages among Hispanic respondents compared to White respondents (52% vs. 80%).
  • Women respondents were more likely than men to intend to offer self-sampling (OR 2.96).

Conclusions:

  • Over 90% of family medicine educators intend to offer women self-sampling for cervical cancer screening.
  • The Question-Behavior Theory effectively explains the shift in intended behavior.
  • Self-sampling represents a promising strategy to improve cervical cancer screening uptake.
