Cervical Cancer Screening Among Hispanic Women

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Cervical Cancer
• Interventions: Behavioral: DVD; Behavioral: Promotora

• Registration Number: NCT01525433
• Lead Sponsor: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center

Brief Summary

In this study, 400 Hispanic women will be recruited and randomized to one of three interventions:

1. Control (no change);

2. A low-intensity information program, consisting of a video approach educating women on the importance of cervical cancer screening;

3. A higher intensity program consisting of the video plus a 'promotora' or lay-community health educator led intervention at the participant's home to encourage cervical cancer screening.

The investigators will compare which intervention is most effective in encouraging Hispanic women to undergo cervical cancer screening (Pap test)

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Participant attends cervical cancer screening	Within 7 months of the intervention

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Patient Navigator	Elapsed time from diagnosis to clinic visit	Evaluation of the patient navigator program as a method to improve adherence and reduce time to follow-up among study participants who receive an abnormal Pap test result. Time to follow-up will be compared to a similar population of patients who were not part of the study who also receive a diagnosis of an abnormal Pap test.
