简要总结
The objective of this study is to evaluate self-collection of vaginal samples for HPV testing as an alternative cervical cancer screening strategy for persons with HIV and/or limited access to care. Self-collection kits will be offered to persons who refuse a Pap smear or are overdue (>=6 months) for cervical cancer screening, with screening uptake recorded as a primary outcome. Kits will be offered in-clinic to individuals who refuse a Pap smear, and individuals overdue for screening will have the option to receive and return kits in the mail. The investigators will additionally administer a phone-based survey to evaluate knowledge about HPV and cervical cancer, barriers and facilitators to screening, and attitudes towards screening. Data from medical records will be abstracted to describe the clinical characteristics of the sample and measure receipt of follow-up procedures. Focus groups will be conducted with clinic administrators, staff, and HIV and women's health experts to evaluate clinic and provider barriers and facilitators to cervical cancer screening. The investigators hypothesize that HPV self-sampling will result in favorable patient-centered outcomes and could reduce disparities in access to screening.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of eligible individuals who accept self-sampling kits
时间窗: Baseline (during clinical and/or study recruitment encounter)
the proportion of eligible individuals due or overdue for screening who agree to collect a vaginal sample for HPV testing.
Confidence with self-collection
时间窗: Within 2 weeks of sample collection
Participants will use a 5-point Likert scale (strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree) to respond to the statement, "I am sure I got a good sample using the swab."
Ease of returning home kits
时间窗: Within 2 weeks of sample collection
Participants who collected a sample at home will use a 5-point Likert scale (strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree) to respond to the statement, "It was easy to return my sample (by mail or to the clinic)."
Proportion of eligible individuals who submit self-sampled specimens
时间窗: 3 weeks from enrollment
the proportion of individuals who agree to self-collection who return samples
Satisfaction with self-collection
时间窗: Within 2 weeks of sample collection
Participants will use a 5-point Likert scale (strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree) to respond to the statement, "I was satisfied with the self-collection experience."
Recommendation of self-collection
时间窗: Within 2 weeks of sample collection
Participants will use a 5-point Likert scale (strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree) to respond to the statement, "I would recommend self-collection to a friend."
