Abstract

Breast cancer is among the commonest cancers that affect women worldwide. Nevertheless, many patients were diagnosed with breast cancer in the terminal stage due to their late presentation to healthcare centres despite the advanced development of screening modalities. Therefore, a systematic review was conducted to summarize the trend of knowledge, attitude, and practice level of breast cancer screening among the public globally. Review identification was performed in database search using PubMed, Scopus and CINAHL. Based on the criteria consisting of full papers in English published from January 2010 to September 2020, 27 articles were eligible for review. The systematic review revealed that the public had inadequate knowledge, negative attitudes, and poor practice on breast cancer screening. Educational programmes should be implemented among communities. Communication skills training must be instilled among healthcare workers to raise knowledge of breast cancer that can influence the attitude and practice of the public on breast cancer screening positively.

公众对乳腺癌筛查的知识、态度和实践:一项系统综述

乳腺癌是影响全世界妇女的最常见的癌症之一。然而，尽管筛查方式发展得很先进，但许多患者在晚期被诊断为乳腺癌，因为他们很晚才到保健中心就诊。因此，我们对全球公众乳腺癌筛查的知识、态度和实践水平趋势进行了系统回顾。通过PubMed、Scopus和CINAHL数据库检索进行综述鉴定。以2010年1月至2020年9月发表的英文全文为标准，共有27篇文章符合评审条件。系统评价显示，公众对乳腺癌筛查的认识不足，态度消极，实践不到位。应在社区中执行教育方案。必须向保健工作者灌输沟通技巧培训，以提高对乳腺癌的认识，从而积极影响公众对乳腺癌筛查的态度和做法。
