  • Title: Human papillomavirus, current vaccines, and cervical cancer prevention.

    Journal: J Obstet Gynecol Neonatal Nurs; 2009; 38(1):69-80. PubMed ID: 19208050.
    Abstract:
    Human papillomavirus infection, the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States, is associated with the development of cervical cancer. The new human papillomavirus vaccine advances cervical cancer prevention; however, provider-recommended screening with Papanicolaou tests and lifestyle modifications are still needed. Widespread implementation of the vaccine and delivering cervical cancer screening to underserved populations remain a challenge. Nurses are ideally suited to address these needs by providing education to patients and families.
