可预防的人类乳头瘤病毒是子宫颈癌的主要原因，主要针对青少年。该研究旨在确定肯尼亚西部青春期女孩的母亲对HPV疫苗接种的实践愿望，态度和知识。这是一项描述性横断面研究设计。使用半结构式问卷获得数据，并使用SPSS软件版本22在95%置信水平下使用描述性和推断性统计进行分析。p值≤ 0.05被认为具有统计学显著性。95%的母亲有给女儿接种HPV疫苗的意愿，且态度积极，对接种HPV疫苗的反应明显低于无接种意愿者，P=0.02，95%CI，OR=0.48（0.90-0.89）。HPV疫苗接种率较低，为9.4%，平均年龄为34岁。结果发现，宫颈癌的知晓率较高（85.0%），HPV和疫苗的知晓率分别为62.0%和64.0%。“我女儿的疫苗接种将促使过早发生性行为，而HPV疫苗接种的成本是疫苗接种的障碍”对疫苗接种的实践产生了统计学上的显着影响。对女儿早发性行为的消极态度显著降低了HPV疫苗的接种率，而对HPV疫苗费用的积极态度显著增加了HPV疫苗的接种率，p值分别为0.007和0.04。在肯尼亚西部，青春期女孩的母亲对HPV和HPV疫苗预防的认识很低。人们对使用HPV疫苗持积极态度和高度愿望，因此需要提高认识，制定政策并统一努力以减少宫颈癌负担。
human papilloma virus (HPV) which is preventable is the main cause of cervical cancer and it targets mostly young adolescents. The study was to determine the practice desire, attitude and knowledge of mothers of adolescent girls on HPV vaccination in Western Kenya. this was a descriptive cross-sectional study design. Data was obtained using semi-structured questionnaires and analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics at 95% confidence level using the SPSS software version 22. A p-value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. ninety five percent of the mothers had intentions to vaccinate their daughters and also had a positive attitude and their response to HPV vaccination was significantly lower than those without intentions p=0.02, 95% CI, OR=0.48 (0.90-0.89). Vaccination against HPV was low at 9.4% with a mean age of 34 years. Our results found a high level of cervical cancer awareness (85.0%), HPV and vaccine awareness respectively (62.0%, and 64.0%). “Vaccination of my daughters will prompt early sexual activity and the cost of HPV vaccination being a barrier to vaccination” had a statistically significant influence on the practice of vaccination. Negative attitude to daughters´ early onset of sexual activity significantly reduced up take while positive attitude to cost of HPV vaccine significantly increased up take of HPV vaccination with p value of 0.007 and 0.04 respectively. awareness of HPV and HPV vaccine prevention is low among mothers of adolescent girls in Western Kenya. There was a positive attitude and high desire towards the use of HPV vaccination therefore a need for awareness, policy and unify efforts to reduce cervical cancer burden.
