dc.description.abstract | Objective
To explore Norwegian general practitioners’ (GPs) experiences with the changes in the cervical cancer screening programme and to uncover which aspects of the programme they find most challenging.
Design
We conducted an electronic cross-sectional survey.
Setting
Norwegian GPs were invited to participate in the survey between February and September in 2020.
Subjects
One hundred and fifty-five of 429 invited Norwegian GPs responded.
Main outcome measures
Self-reported measures were used to analyse GPs experiences and beliefs related to the screening programme.
Results
Most GPs did not find it particularly challenging to keep up with the changes in the screening programme, regardless of whether they came from areas with HPV-based or cytology-based cervical cancer screening implemented. Challenges concerning the follow-up of patients after an abnormal test were a frequently reported issue. We did not find any differences in how often GPs were uncertain of the follow-up of an abnormal test result in areas with HPV-based compared to cytology-based screening.
Conclusions
The implementation of HPV-based cervical cancer screening in women 34–69 years does not seem to have affected how challenging the GPs perceive the screening programme. | en_US |
