Abstract:
Objective To investigate the cognition and attitude about human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV vaccines among nurses, so as to provide a certain basis for the popularization of HPV vaccine. Methods A self-designed questionnaire was used to survey the cognition and attitude about HPV and its vaccine among nurses in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital by a professional platform named "Wenjuanxing" from August to September 2017. A total of 206 questionnaires were collected.Results Among 206 nurses, 98.5％ of the nurses had heard of HPV, only 14.1％ knew HPV could spread through touching and 41.3％ knew that HPV infection can be self subsided. 90.3％ of the nurses had heard of HPV vaccine. 78.6％ of the nurses would like to take HPV vaccine, and 70.2％ of the nurses agreed their daughters to take HPV vaccine. Over 60％ nurses worried about the safety and efficacy of HPV vaccine.Conclusions Nurses have some knowledge about HPV and HPV vaccine, but it is not comprehensive enough. The government should strengthen the publicity of knowledge about HPV and HPV vaccine.
