A theory and community-based educational intervention was designed to increase HPV-related knowledge and intent to vaccinate adolescent girls, against human papillomavirus (HPV) in Appalachia, a region with high cervical cancer incidence and mortality. An HPV educational session was conducted with immediate pre-/post-test questionnaires and 1-month follow-up telephone interview. McNemar tests and paired t tests evaluated change in individual knowledge variables and change in overall knowledge and intent to vaccinate against HPV, respectively. Of 117 attendees, 38 (32.5%) were parents of vaccine-eligible daughters and 79 (67.5%) non-parental caregivers. HPV-related knowledge increased for all participants (p < 0.0001) and among parents (p < 0.0001). Intent to vaccinate daughters within 1 month increased among parents (p = 0.002). Of nine (23.7%) parents who completed the follow-up interview, 100% reported the intervention as helpful and 44.4% reported that they started vaccination. Our education intervention was associated with increased HPV-related knowledge and intent to vaccinate girls in Appalachia against HPV.
在阿巴拉契亚地区（该地区宫颈癌发病率和死亡率较高），设计了一种基于理论和社区的教育干预措施，以增加青少年女孩对人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）相关的知识以及接种HPV疫苗的意愿。开展了一次HPV教育课程，并在课程前后立即进行问卷调查，以及在1个月后进行电话随访。McNemar检验和配对t检验分别评估个体知识变量的变化以及总体知识和接种HPV疫苗意愿的变化。在117名参与者中，38名（32.5%）是符合疫苗接种条件女儿的父母，79名（67.5%）是非父母照料者。所有参与者（p<0.0001）以及父母群体（p<0.0001）的HPV相关知识均有所增加。父母中在1个月内为女儿接种疫苗的意愿有所增加（p = 0.002）。在完成随访访谈的9名（23.7%）父母中，100%报告该干预措施有帮助，44.4%报告他们已开始接种疫苗。我们的教育干预措施与阿巴拉契亚地区女孩增加HPV相关知识以及接种HPV疫苗的意愿有关。
