- W2887173994 abstract "Background: Every year in Europe 60,000 women develop cervical cancer and 30,000 die from the disease. HPV vaccines are currently believed to constitute an important element of cervical cancer control strategy. The introduction of the HPV vaccine constitutes a shift in health policy and health promotion practice. The aim of this study was to investigate knowledge, beliefs and communication preferences of the Greek public with regards to the HPV vaccine.Methods: Six focus groups (5–8 participants) were conducted with unvaccinated teenage girls, young women and mothers of vaccine-eligible girls, recruited via schools and universities. Pre-focus group questionnaires consisted of: socio-demographic details and a knowledge questionnaire. The discussion guide was based on issues raised by relevant studies such as disease severity and personal risk perception, perceived benefits and barriers to vaccination, etc. Participants were also shown three types of stimuli namely, a leaflet, an expert interview and a documentary containing equivalent information on HPV and the HPV vaccine. Thematic analysis was used for analysis of the qualitative data.Findings: Findings revealed that participants had low to moderate knowledge levels on HPV and cervical cancer. Beliefs specific to the HPV vaccine as well as general beliefs about medicines and their use in everyday life were prevalent. The vaccination dilemma was exacerbated by the conflicting advice received by health professionals coupled with the difficulties participants experienced in evaluating relevant health information. Participants judged all stimuli according to content and format but the documentary was their preferred health information communication option.Conclusions: Findings could contribute to the understanding of health decision making with regards to preventive vaccination and help formulate recommendations for health policy adjustments." @default.
