Enquadramento: Na última decada tem observado um significante aumento de fatores de
riscos associados a infecção pelo HPV em adolescentes, onde esta patologia representa um
alto índice de morbidade e mortalidade que varia de acordo com os riscos sóciodemográficos,
cognitivos,comportamentais e biológicos. As adolescentes são as mais
vulneráveis a infecção pelo HPV.
Objectivos: Identificar o nível de conhecimento das adolescentes brasileiras a cerca do
Exame Papanicolau e analisar as variáveis que interferem na adesão das adolescentes ao
rastreio de HPV.
Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, transversal, quantitativo com ênfase na
coleta de dados por questionario, aplicado a 100 adolescentes com idades compreendidas
entre os 11 e os 18 anos a frequentar uma escola de nível médio do monicipio do Cabo de
Santo Agostinho.
Resultados: As adolescentes tinham entre 15 e 16 anos (45%) maioritariamente
evangélicas (65%). Observamos que apenas 35% das adolescentes entrevistadas
realizaram o exame de Papanicolau. Demonstra, também, que o local de escolha para
realização do exame Papanicolau foi na rede privada de saúde(51,4%). E por fim, o que
leva às adolescentes procurarem a realização do exame Papanicolau foi a presença do
corrimento vaginal(57,2%). (46,1%) não realizaram o exame por vergonha.
Conclusão: Os resultados apontam para a necessidade de uma transformação nos
comportamentos dos profissionais de saúde, vendo a adolescente de forma holística
valorizando sua cultura, família e comunidade, afim de fortalecer um vínculo baseado em
confiança e respeito pela suas diferenças, motivando para comportamentos promotores de
saúde sexual e reprodutiva. Ressalta ainda a necessidade de melhorar as condições de
acessibilidade aos serviços para que a adesão aos rastreios seja mais significativa.
