随着人乳头瘤病毒 (HPV) 疫苗在欠发达国家上市,了解女性对 HPV 疫苗的态度有助于指导免疫计划的方法。我们评估了寻求妇女健康服务的肯尼亚妇女 (N = 147) 对预防性 HPV 疫苗的了解和兴趣。他们对宫颈癌或 HPV 疫苗知之甚少。然而,大多数女性(95%、95% 置信区间 [CI]:92%、99%)愿意让她们的女儿接种预防宫颈癌的疫苗,并优先选择需要较少剂量的廉价疫苗。 (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
As human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines become available in less-developed countries, understanding women's attitudes towards HPV vaccines can help guide approaches to immunization programs. We assessed knowledge and interest in prophylactic HPV vaccines among Kenyan women seeking women's health services (N = 147). They knew little about cervical cancer or HPV vaccine. Most women (95%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 92%, 99%), however, were willing to have their daughters vaccinated with a vaccine that would prevent cervical cancer, with preference for an inexpensive vaccine requiring fewer doses.
