First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether giving women a self-collection kit for HPV testing at their family doctor's office would encourage more women to get screened for cervical cancer. The study involved 308 women aged 30-65 who were overdue for screening. Some women were offered the usual Pap test, while others were offered a self-sampling device. The goal was to see if the self-test option increased participation in the full screening process.
