Abstract
El proyecto de investigación tuvo como objetivo principal determinar la
relación que existe entre los factores de riesgo y nivel conocimiento del
cáncer de cuello uterino en mujeres atendidas en el Centro Oncológico de
Loreto, Metodología: El estudio fue del tipo, no experimental, prospectivo,
transversal, descriptiva, y correlacional; con una muestra de 220 mujeres.
La técnica empleada fue la encuesta, y el instrumento un cuestionario
sobre datos sociodemográficos, así como los factores de riego y nivel de
conocimiento. Resultados: Con respecto a los factores sociodemográficos
el 36.7% fue la edad promedio 18 a 59 años de las mujeres atendidas, el
56.4% tienen grado de instrucción secundaria, el 68.6% la ocupación fue
ama de casa, el 42.3% su estado civil fue conviviente. Con respecto a las
dimensiones de los factores de riesgo se encontró de las 220 mujeres
encuestadas las características reproductivas 46.8% y hábitos
inadecuados 31.7% fueron las más predominantes. Con respecto a las
dimensiones del nivel de conocimiento: concepto 36.3% y medidas
preventivas fueron las mas predominantes, mientras que el 87.7%
tuvieron un nivel de conocimiento alto, seguido de un 12.3% que tuvieron
un nivel de conocimiento medio. Al analizar la relación entre los factores
de riesgo y el nivel de conocimiento el p-valor 0.005 nos indica que existe
diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre el riesgo y nivel de
conocimiento medio sobre el cáncer de cuello uterino. Conclusiones: No
se encontró relación significativa entre en los factores de riesgo: entre el
factor y nivel de conocimiento alto. Sin embargo, se encontró relación
estadísticamente significativa entre el factor y nivel de conocimiento
medio de cáncer de cuello uterino.
