Health Visit. 1989 Jan;62(1):20-1.
Health visitors called on women who had not attended for a cervical smear test, following an invitation via a computer-managed scheme. Reasons for non-attendance were identified and the study showed that health visitors can be successful in encouraging some non-attenders to be screened. However, there are problems involved in undertaking such a role, which must be acknowledged if the health visitors's time is to be used effectively.
健康访视员拜访了那些通过计算机管理系统收到邀请却未参加宫颈涂片检查的女性。找出了她们未参加的原因,研究表明健康访视员能够成功鼓励一些未参加者接受筛查。然而,承担这样的角色存在一些问题,如果要有效利用健康访视员的时间,就必须承认这些问题。
