ABSTRACT

Objective: to determine the efficiency of two interventions to make women awareness in the participation of the appropriate detection program of cancer of the cervix (DCC). Material and methods: an experimental study realiced in a Primary Care Unit where the women included, according to the NOM-014-SSA2-1994 recommendations, need to be tested. The experimental group was randomized selected (patients were selected to the experimental) or control group (through a randomized method). The dependant variable was the presence of women who wanted the detection test in relation to a period of time. Results: there were 50 women in each group. There was a similar distribution of women that had never taken the detection test before in both groups. In the experimental group there was a higher number of women that took the test after the intervention than in the control group, 34 (68%) vs. 24 (52%) p‹0.05. These values show that there is an important difference in the population who takes the test after the training sessions. Conclusion: there was a bigger positive impact in women who were aware about the cancer of the cervix and the importance of its detection. This refl ected in a higher attendance to the study, mainly in women that had taken the same test previously.
