| description | The study determined awareness, use and the main source of information
about preventive health examinations among 387 childbearing women
attending three health facilities in Uyo, Nigeria. Respondents were
consenting women aged 15-49 years who had a live birth in the two
months preceding the survey. Respondents were interviewed using
structured questionnaires during child welfare clinic visits at each
facility. Awareness about pap smears and breast self examination was
14.2% and 35.3% respectively. Testing rates were highest for blood
pressure checks, HIV and blood sugar and lowest for Pap smears and
mammograms. Health workers were the main informants on preventive
tests. Awareness and secondary education enhanced women's uptake
of screening services across levels of health care. Secondary education
as a minimum and intensified awareness creation about preventive health
examinations through media, school based programs, durbars and public
health campaigns are vital to the health and well being of women and
children.
L'étude a déterminé la sensibilisation, l'utilisation et
la principale source d'informations sur les examens médicaux
préventifs chez 387 femmes en âge de procréer qui
fréquentent trois établissements de santé à Uyo,
Nigéria. Les interviewées étaient des femmes
consentants, âgées de 15-49 ans qui ont eu une naissance
vivante au cours des deux mois précédant l'enquête. Les
interviewées ont été interrogées à l'aide de
questionnaires structurés lors des visites aux cliniques
adaptées au bien-être de l'enfant dans chaque
établissement. La sensibilisation sur les frottis vaginaux et
l'autopalpation du sein était de 14,2% et 35,3% respectivement.
Les taux de dépistage étaient plus élevés pour les
contrôles de la tension artérielle, le VIH et le sucre
sanguin plus faible concernant le test de Papanicolaou et la
mammographie. Le personnel sanitaire ont été les principaux
informateurs sur les essais de prévention. La sensibilisation et
l'éducation secondaire ont amélioré l'adoption des
services de dépistage à tous les niveaux des soins
sanitaires. L'enseignement secondaire comme un niveau minimum ainsi que
la création de la sensibilisation intensifiée par rapport
à des examens médicaux préventifs à travers les
médias, les programmes scolaires, les durbars et les campagnes de
santé publique, sont essentiels à la santé et au
bien-être des femmes et des enfants |
