Résumé
In Morocco, cervical cancer screening rate is still low, which determines the need to adopt new screening approaches. Vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing is one of these strategies. Anticipating changes in screening plans for CC, we would like to present to health authorities a global view about the acceptability and preference of vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing among a population of Moroccan women. The aim of this pilot study is to assess the acceptability and preference of vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing among a population of Moroccan women. A cross-sectional study surveyed 400 Moroccan women aged between 25 and 65 years, who are recruited from various healthcare facilities in three Moroccan regions, between March and November 2022. Data were collected via interviews, using a questionnaire. Among the 400 participants, 380 (95%) were ready to undergo a vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing. Among participants who expressed their willingness to perform this test, 295 (73.6%) prefer to carry out it at home. A decreased likelihood of HPV self-sampling was determined by belief that only women with vaginal discharge or bleeding need to be screened. Age, marital status, perceived severity of CC, practice CC screening, and perceived self-efficacy were identified as the main factors influencing the preference for home based vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing. Vaginal self-sampling for HPV testing is an alternative option that could overcome a set of screening barriers defined in the Moroccan context, in order to increase CC screening coverage.
