Knowledge, Husband’s Support, Early Detection Of Cervical CancerAbstract
Cervical cancer is a major health problem for women and the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. The high occurrence of cervical cancer is due to low early detection coverage. The low participation of women of childbearing age in early cervical cancer detection is influenced by various factors, including knowledge and husband's support. This study aims to determine the correlation between knowledge and husband's support and early cervical cancer detection in the Working Area of Penarik Health Center in Mukomuko, Bengkulu, 2025. This study used an observational analytical survey design with a cross-sectional approach. The population was all 1,946 couples of childbearing age in the Working Area of Penarik Health Center in Mukomuko, Bengkulu, 2025. A sample of 106 respondents was selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the chi-square statistical test. Univariate analysis showed that of the 106 respondents, almost all (41 respondents) had insufficient knowledge about early cervical cancer detection, and most (63 respondents) had insufficient support from their husbands. Bivariate analysis showed a relationship between knowledge and early cervical cancer detection (p-value = 0.014), and a relationship between husband's support and early cervical cancer detection (p value = 0.010). Penarik Health Center in Mukomuko Bengkulu is expected to increase health promotion and education activities regarding early cervical cancer detection, and involve husbands in all outreach programs to increase awareness and participation of women of childbearing age in undergoing VIA screening.
