UNASSIGNED: This study aimed to assess the impact of educational interventions on intern nursing students\' knowledge and considerations related to HPV and its vaccine.
UNASSIGNED: A repeated measures design with pretest/posttest measures was employed. The study involved 88 students at a university in Turkey and was conducted between November 2021 and February 2022. Data were collected using a Personal Information Form and the HPV Information Scale. All participants received theoretical and student-centered interactive education, and data were analyzed using numerical data, percentage distributions, Bonferroni correction, and one-way repeated measures ANOVA.
UNASSIGNED: The total score of the scale and the scores of all four sub-dimensions obtained in the first and third months after the education were significantly higher than those obtained before the education (p <0.001). Additionally, the proportion of students considering getting an HPV vaccine increased following the education (p <0.001).Conclusions: The education on HPV and its vaccine potentially improved students\' knowledge levels and increased consideration for vaccination. Implementing interventions that equip nursing students with sufficient knowledge about HPV and its vaccine can contribute to reducing HPV-related cancer rates. Therefore, it is recommended to implement educational programs focused on the prevention of HPV-related cancers.
■本研究旨在评估教育干预措施对实习护生与HPV及其疫苗相关知识和注意事项的影响。
■采用具有前测/后测措施的重复措施设计。该研究涉及土耳其一所大学的88名学生,于2021年11月至2022年2月进行。使用个人信息表和HPV信息量表收集数据。所有参与者都接受了理论和以学生为中心的互动教育,使用数字数据分析数据,百分比分布,Bonferroni校正,和单向重复测量方差分析。
■教育后第一个月和第三个月获得的量表总分和所有四个子维度的得分均显着高于教育前获得的得分(p<0.001)。此外,接受教育后考虑接种HPV疫苗的学生比例增加(p<0.001).结论:HPV及其疫苗的教育可能会提高学生的知识水平,并增加对疫苗接种的考虑。实施干预措施,使护生充分了解HPV及其疫苗,有助于降低HPV相关癌症的发病率。因此,建议实施重点预防HPV相关癌症的教育计划.
