Abstract

Background: Physicians’ knowledge and comments are important in the uptake of human papillomavirus (HPV) screening among women. We aimed to evaluate the knowledge of senior medical students on HPV as future physicians of Iran. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed between March 2021 and May 2021. All final-year medical students of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences were invited to complete an online standardized questionnaire through a mobile app. The Independent samples t test was performed for data analysis in SPSS software version 16. Results: In the present study, 215 female medical students and 128 male ones participated, with an average age of 23.14 (SD=1.21) years. Most of the students (85.67%) were single. The average knowledge score of the students was 9.25 (SD=6.21), demonstrating their low level of knowledge of HPV. Furthermore, no significant score differences were observed between students regarding their gender and marital status. Conclusion: Regarding the low scores of final-year medical students’ knowledge of HPV, educational programs should be directed to HPV to improve medical students’ knowledge about this virus and its related diseases.

大不里士医科大学医学生对人乳头瘤病毒知识的了解

背景:医生的知识和意见对妇女接受人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)筛查很重要。我们的目的是评估高级医学生对HPV的知识，作为伊朗未来的医生。方法:在2021年3月至2021年5月期间进行横断面研究。邀请大不里士医科大学的所有大四学生通过手机应用程序完成一份在线标准化问卷。数据分析采用SPSS软件16版进行独立样本t检验。结果:本研究共有女医学生215人，男医学生128人，平均年龄23.14岁(SD=1.21)。大多数学生(85.67%)是单身。学生的平均知识得分为9.25分(SD=6.21)，表明学生对HPV的知识水平较低。此外，在性别和婚姻状况方面，学生之间的得分没有显著差异。结论:针对高三医学生HPV知识水平较低的问题，应针对HPV开展教育，提高医学生对该病毒及其相关疾病的认识。
