目标：安全网机构中的妇女接受宫颈癌筛查的可能性较小。人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）自我采样是宫颈癌筛查的替代方法。我们研究的可接受性和可行性的HPV自我采样的患者和诊所工作人员在两个安全网诊所在迈阿密。材料和方法：海地和拉丁美洲妇女年龄30-65岁，在过去的3年中没有巴氏涂片被招募。为妇女提供HPV自我采样或传统的巴氏涂片筛查。评估了患者和诊所工作人员对HPV自我采样的可接受性。如果传统的筛选是首选的医疗记录reviewed.Results：共招募了180名妇女（134拉丁美洲和46海地）。67%的女性选择HPV自我采样。在那些选择传统筛查的人中，22%的人在招募后5个月没有接受筛查。超过80%的女性同意HPV自我采样更快，更私密，易于使用，并且更愿意再次使用。在诊所的工作人员，80%同意他们愿意将HPV自我采样到practice.Conclusions：HPV自我采样是可以接受的和可行的参与者和诊所的工作人员，并可能有助于克服筛选的障碍。
Objectives: Women in safety-net institutions are less likely to receive cervical cancer screening. Human papilloma virus (HPV) self-sampling is an alternative method of cervical cancer screening. We examine the acceptability and feasibility of HPV self-sampling among patients and clinic staff in two safety-net clinics in Miami.Materials and Methods: Haitian and Latina women aged 30-65 years with no Pap smear in the past 3 years were recruited. Women were offered HPV self-sampling or traditional Pap smear screening. The acceptability of HPV self-sampling among patients and clinic staff was assessed. If traditional screening was preferred the medical record was reviewed.Results: A total of 180 women were recruited (134 Latinas and 46 Haitian). HPV self-sampling was selected by 67% women. Among those selecting traditional screening, 22% were not screened 5 months postrecruitment. Over 80% of women agreed HPV self-sampling was faster, more private, easy to use, and would prefer to use again. Among clinic staff, 80% agreed they would be willing to incorporate HPV self-sampling into practice.Conclusions: HPV self-sampling was both acceptable and feasible to participants and clinic staff and may help overcome barriers to screening.
