Abstract Naslov: Znanje i stavovi žena o važnosti redovitih ginekoloških pregleda
Ime i prezime autora: Valentina Horvat
Uvod: Redoviti ginekološki pregledi preduvjet su reproduktivnog zdravlja žena, a
znanje o važnosti ginekoloških preventivnih pregleda osnova je za poželjno
zdravstveno ponašanje žena. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati znanje i stavove
žena o važnosti redovitih ginekoloških pregleda i utvrditi postoje li razlike ovisno o
dobi, obrazovanju i bračnom statusu.
Metodologija: Istraživanje je provedeno među 202 ispitanice koje su posjetile
Polikliniku Eljuga. Kao instrument istraživanja znanja i stavova žena o važnosti
redovitih ginekoloških pregleda korišten je modificirani anonimni upitnik. Podatci su
analizirani metodama deskriptivne i analitičke statistike. Rezultati su interpretirani na
razini značajnosti od P<0,05.
Rezultati: Analizom podataka utvrđeno je da je znanje žena o važnosti redovitih
ginekoloških pregleda na visokoj razini. Šezdeset i šest posto ispitanica smatra da je
na preventivni ginekološki pregled potrebno ići jednom godišnje, dok 30,2%
ispitanica smatra da bi pregled trebalo raditi svakih šest mjeseci. Utvrđeno je da
75,7% ispitanica zna da se redovitim ginekološkim pregledima može smanjiti rizik za
razvoj raka vrata maternice. Da bi Papa test trebalo raditi jednom godišnje znalo je
73,6% ispitanica, a 22,9% smatra da bi trebalo ići svakih šest mjeseci. Na ginekološki
pregled redovito je išlo 83,7% ispitanica, a na Papa test 81,1%. Najviša razina znanja
utvrđena je među ispitanicama koje su srednje dobi (od 35 do 64 godina), visoko
obrazovane i udane, ali bez utvrđene statistički značajne razlike među kategorijama.
Zaključak: Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da ispitanice imaju visoku razinu znanja o
važnosti redovitih ginekoloških pregleda i Papa testa, te da redovito odlaze na
preventivne preglede. Trebalo bi provesti dodatna istraživanja na općoj populaciji
žena kako bi se dobio bolji uvid u znanje i stavove žena o važnosti redovitih
ginekoloških pregleda i prema tome nastavilo s programima informiranja i edukacije.
Abstract (english) Title: Knowledge and attitudes of women about the importance of regular
gynaecological check-ups
Author: Valentina Horvat
Introduction: Regular gynaecological check-ups are prerequisite for women
reproductive health. The aim of this survey was to analyse knowledge and attitudes
of women about the importance of regular gynaecological check-ups, and to identify
possible variations of their attitudes due to age, education level and marital status.
Methodology: The survey was conducted among 202 women scheduled in Eljuga
Polyclinic. Modified anonymous questionnaire was used to determine knowledge and
attitudes about the importance of regular gynaecological check-ups. Data were
analysed by methods of descriptive and analytical statistics. The results were
interpreted to the significance level of P<0.05.
Results: Data analysis showed that the knowledge of women about the importance
of regular gynaecological check-ups is at high levels. 66.0% of women deemed
necessary to have the preventive gynaecological check-up annually, and 30,2%
every six months, respectively. 75,7% respondents was aware that regular
gynaecological check-ups could lower the risk of cervical cancer development. The
Pap Smear test was considered necessary to have it done annually by 73,6%
respondents, and 22,9% considered it necessary to have it done twice a year.
Regular check-ups were scheduled by 83,7% respondents, and the Pap Smear test
by 81,1%. The highest level of awareness was estimated among respondents aged
between 35 and 64, who have higher education level and who are married.
Conclusion: Results showed high level of knowledge about regular gynaecologic
check-ups and Pap smear tests importance among respondents, and that they have
regular preventive check-ups. Further studies should be conducted on representative
female sample to obtain better insight of women knowledge and attitudes about
regular gynaecological check-ups. Obtained results could be basis for further
informing and education programmes.
