Knowledge, attitudes and practice of vaccination against HPV - the male and female population
MANOVÁ, Michaela
The theoretical part summarizes information about cervical cancer, which is caused by the human papilloma virus. Cervical cancer is ranked on the second place in the incidence of cancers world wide. Virus HPV affects both men and women. For men, it results in the emergence of genital warts or cancer of the penis. Although there are existing opportunites for effective prevention for men, the focus is more on the female population.This thesis looks at the current problems in the prevention of cervical cancer, which affects an ever growing number of women and men. In this work, we find out how informed are the young people about cervical cancer, their knowledge about possibilities of prevention, and experience of vaccinated respondents in the age in which this vaccination is recommended, that is, before the start of an active sexual life. In the research part, is a summary of a questionnaire, which was done among pupils of a primary school in Plzen. The age range of respondents was 13- 16 years. The research included both girls and boys. The assumption that girls are more informed and are more interested in information regarding cervical cancer and boys on the contrary don?t search for this information because they think that this problem does not concern them , was largely confirmed by this research.
