Abstract

The aim of the study was to examine the knowledge, attitude and uptake of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine among 302 parents whose adolescents' children utilized care services at the General Practice Units (GPU) of the University of Benin Teaching Hospital (UBTH). Systematic sampling technique was used to select respondents for the study. Self-administered questionnaire that was pretested was used in collecting information from the respondents. The characteristics of the respondents were described using simple proportion and frequency. Also, knowledge and attitude of respondents on HPV and its vaccine were presented using simple proportion and frequency. The Chi-square test examined factors associated with uptake of HPV vaccine. The results indicate that 42.4% of the respondents have heard of HPV infection, whil only 18.5% have heard of HPV vaccine. By contrast, 18.5% of the respondents reported that their children had been vaccinated. Attitude of the respondents on the vaccine was not impressive given that only 34.4% reported that the vaccine was important, while 56.6% reported that they will advise their friends to be vaccinated. A higher proportion of children who were vaccinated were those whose parents believed that their children will be vulnerable without vaccination and those whose religion did not disapprove of the vaccination. We conclude that the knowledge of HPV among parents in this population is low; the knowledge of the vaccine and its uptake is low; while attitude towards the vaccine is unimpressive. We recommend the adoption of intervention programmes to improve the knowledge and encourage th uptake of the vaccine among adolescents in this population.

摘要

这项研究的目的是调查 302 名曾在贝宁大学教学医院(UBTH)普通科医疗单位(GPU)就诊的青少年父母对人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)疫苗的知识、态度和接种情况。采用系统抽样技术选择研究对象。使用预测试的自我管理问卷从受访者处收集信息。使用简单比例和频率描述受访者的特征。还使用简单比例和频率呈现受访者对 HPV 及其疫苗的知识和态度。卡方检验检查了与 HPV 疫苗接种相关的因素。结果表明,42.4%的受访者听说过 HPV 感染,而只有 18.5%听说过 HPV 疫苗。相比之下,18.5%的受访者报告说他们的孩子已经接种了疫苗。考虑到只有 34.4%的受访者认为该疫苗很重要,而 56.6%的受访者表示他们会建议他们的朋友接种疫苗,因此受访者对疫苗的态度并不令人印象深刻。接种疫苗的儿童比例较高的是那些认为如果不接种疫苗,他们的孩子将面临风险的父母和那些宗教不反对接种疫苗的父母。我们得出的结论是,该人群中父母对 HPV 的了解程度较低;对疫苗的了解程度和接种率也较低;而对疫苗的态度则令人印象不深。我们建议采取干预措施来提高该人群青少年对疫苗的了解并鼓励他们接种疫苗。
