- W9887645 abstract "Invasive cervical cancer is a leading cause of death in Jamaica despite the availability of Pap smear screening. 90% of women who die from cervical cancer have never been screened. The effectiveness of Pap smear screening depends on women's knowledge of and attitudes toward screening, the availability of this service, the adequacy of laboratory facilities to process the smears, staffing of clinics and laboratories, quality control, a system of recall of women with positive smears, and economic factors. This article reviews the impact of each of these factors in the Jamaican context. Most women have heard of the Pap smear but believe its purpose is to detect rather than prevent cervical cancer. Screening rates are low among poor, uneducated women. As a result of staff shortages in government laboratories, there is a long delay before Pap smear results are returned. The problem of cervical cancer is severe enough in Jamaica to justify the reallocation of funds from less critical areas." @default.
