Cervical cancer affects more Hispanic women than non-Hispanic women in the United States. A vaccination exists to aid in the prevention of cervical cancer; an estimated 70% of cases could be avoided with the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine. However, women of Hispanic descent have many access barriers. By identifying and addressing such barriers, nurses can play a significant role in educating Hispanic women about the benefits of vaccination before HPV exposure occurs. Theoretical integration with Leininger's Culture Care Theory of Diversity and Universality provides a framework to address cultural differences and awareness when educating Hispanic women about this health issue. Additional nursing research into effective communication and educational programs to help reach the Hispanic population continues to be a priority in this vulnerable community.
在美国，宫颈癌对西班牙裔女性的影响比对非西班牙裔女性的影响更大。有一种疫苗可用于预防宫颈癌；据估计，人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）疫苗可避免约70%的病例。然而，西班牙裔血统的女性在获取疫苗方面存在诸多障碍。通过识别和解决这些障碍，护士在向西班牙裔女性宣传HPV暴露前接种疫苗的益处方面可发挥重要作用。将理论与莱宁格的文化护理多样性与普遍性理论相结合，为在向西班牙裔女性宣传这一健康问题时解决文化差异和提高文化意识提供了一个框架。在这个弱势群体中，对有助于接触西班牙裔人群的有效沟通和教育项目进行更多的护理研究仍然是一个优先事项。
