Filter by:The goal of this research study is to examine adherence to national guidelines for cervical cancer screening in women age >65. Patient surveys will provide information about women age >65 current cervical screening practices and allow researchers to compare that information to national recommended guidelines regarding cervical screenings. Provider surveys will provide information from surveyed providers about screening knowledge and current provider practices for women patients > 65 for cervical cancer. The results may be used to make future recommendations for improving gynecological care and to help develop effective strategies for ensuring guideline adherence.
The objective of this study is to evaluate self-collection of vaginal samples for HPV testing as an alternative cervical cancer screening strategy for persons with HIV and/or limited access to care. Self-collection kits will be offered to persons who refuse a Pap smear or are overdue (>=6 months) for cervical cancer screening, with screening uptake recorded as a primary outcome. Kits will be offered in-clinic to individuals who refuse a Pap smear, and individuals overdue for screening will have the option to receive and return kits in the mail. The investigators will additionally administer a phone-based survey to evaluate knowledge about HPV and cervical cancer, barriers and facilitators to screening, and attitudes towards screening. Data from medical records will be abstracted to describe the clinical characteristics of the sample and measure receipt of follow-up procedures. Focus groups will be conducted with clinic administrators, staff, and HIV and women's health experts to evaluate clinic and provider barriers and facilitators to cervical cancer screening. The investigators hypothesize that HPV self-sampling will result in favorable patient-centered outcomes and could reduce disparities in access to screening.
Precision Robotics' Sirius Robotic Flexible Endoscopic System is a new fully integrated compact 3D laparoscopic camera system with a disposable single-use flexible tip that can change its viewing direction. A Prospective Study to Evaluate the Clinical Performance and Safety of the SIRIUS Endoscope System in Laparoscopic Gynecological Surgery. The study is a single-arm prospective study to evaluate the Performance and Safety of the SIRIUS Endoscope System.
The aim is to evaluate different strategies to improve the experience and effect of the first visit for a cervical screening test (CST). 1. How do the context and the allotted time for the first visit for a CST affect women's i) experience of CST ii) knowledge of and attitudes towards CST and cervical cancer and iii) attitude towards contacting a midwife regarding sexual and reproductive health in the future 2. What effects do the RLP have, when used as a starting point for counselling at the first visit for a CST, on women's i) experience of CST ii) knowledge of and attitudes towards CST and cervical cancer iii) attitude towards contacting a midwife regarding sexual and reproductive health in the future and iv) knowledge of and attitudes towards fertility and preconception health Method: cluster randomised control trial evaluating the effect of different strategies, including RLP-based information, to improve the experience and effect of the first visit for a CST.
This study is a randomized, open-label, controlled, multi-center Phase III clinical study, aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with famitinib malate versus platinum-based chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer. All enrolled patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups and continuously treated until any event that meets the criteria for end of the clinical trial.
Counteracting misinformation on childhood vaccines remains a priority for public health in industrialized countries. Previous research showed that misinformation-induced vaccine hesitancy particularly concerns very highly or very lowly educated parents, and, especially in Europe, specific groups of immigrants. Misinformation framing directly targets specific sub-population of parents by exploiting different cognitive biases, and specific concerns based on cultural norms: this project aims at testing the effectiveness of similar framing techniques applied to positive information on the HPV vaccine by conducting a Randomized Controlled Trial in Stockholm, Sweden. It randomizes emotionally and scientifically/statistically framed information addressing the specific concerns reported by previous literature.
Cancer represents the second cause of death in general population worldwide and according to statistics, it is expected to increase in the next 20 years. Cervical cancer is the fourth cause of morbidity and mortality among women around the world. Late diagnosis and treatment indices several emotional reactions in patients leading to psychological disorders with an impact in quality of life. Anxiety and depression are the most frequent emotional reactions in cancer patients, which may vary depending on psychosocial factors such as coping and family support, mostly provided by the primary caregiver. Despite the high psychological morbidity in cancer patients, it is estimated that, among those patients needing psychological support, only 10% receive such interventions. A growing interest on psychological interventions in oncology has increased in the last 40 years, however, scarce investigations have been performed, especially in cervical cancer patients. The Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy has proven to be beneficial in general cancer population decreasing the psychological symptoms and improving the quality of life. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of two Cognitive-Behavioral psychological interventions on anxiety, depression, coping, therapeutic adherence, sexual satisfaction and quality of life of cervical cancer patients with locally-advanced and advanced disease attended at the National Cancer Institute from Mexico. Psychological intervention will be provided during ten weekly sessions including psychoeducation, relaxation, cognitive restructuring and problem solving with a pretest, posttest performed one week after intervention, and finally a follow up after three months after finishing the psychological intervention.
Regularly attending for Pap test cervical cancer screening in a clinic is often unfeasible and/or unacceptable to many women. This study evaluates if mailing and testing self-sampled kits for high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) can cost-effectively increase screening participation among underserved minority women in a safety-net health system.
It is universally accepted that the persistent infection of high-risk human papillomavirus(HR-HPV) is the cause of cervical intraepithelial neoplasias and cancer. Some researches indicate that the virus load may relate the extent of the disease. The objective of the study is to detect the virus load of 14 types HR-HPV among the participants, using a new HPV DNA hybrid capture technology,sequentially find the diagnostic significance of virus load of HPV.
It is to investigate to what extent a gentle tissue extraction of CIN lesions of the cervix will bring the same conclusion than the conventional cervix biopsy, but with less pain and morbidity, after patients were undergoing a conisation in order to treat CIN.
