Intervention to Increase Cervical Cancer Screening Behavior among Medically Underserved Women: Effectiveness of 3R Communication Model
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling has the potential to increase Cervical Cancer Screening (CCS) and reduce the cervical cancer burden in Medically Underserved Women (MUW). However, interventions promoting self-sampling are limited. We examined the effectiveness of an intervention study in inc...

description | Human Papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling has the potential to increase Cervical Cancer Screening (CCS) and reduce the cervical cancer burden in Medically Underserved Women (MUW). However, interventions promoting self-sampling are limited. We examined the effectiveness of an intervention study in increasing CCS among MUW. We conducted a quasi-experimental intervention study. A face-to-face verbal approach was used to recruit MUW (n = 83, mean age 48.57 ± 11.02) living in a small city in the US. Behavioral intervention based on reframing, reprioritizing, and reforming (3R model) was used to educate the women about CCS in a group format. The women (n = 83) completed pre-and post-intervention assessments, and 10 of them were invited for follow-up interviews. The primary outcome was CCS uptake. Mixed methods analyses were conducted using a t-test for the primary outcome, PROCESS for mediation analysis, and NVivo for interview data. The majority of women (75%) completed self-testing. High-risk HPV among women was 11%, and of those, 57% followed up with physicians for care. We found that the significant increase in the women’s post-intervention screening behaviors was mediated by the increase in knowledge (Indirect Effect [IE] = 0.1314; 95% CI, 0.0104, 0.4079) and attitude (IE = 0.2167; 95% CI, 0.0291, 0.6050) scores, (p < 0.001). Interview analyses offered further explanations why MUW found the intervention messages acceptable (encourages proactive behavior), feasible (simple and easy to understand), and appropriate (helpful and informative). Barriers, including lack of trust and fear of results, were identified. The findings suggest that an intervention that combines the 3R model and self-sampling may increase CCS among MUW. |
