Methods: A cross-sectional study using the National Inpatient Sample database covering 97% of the USA population was carried out.
Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the effectiveness of training low-to-middle-income countries' local healthcare providers using the Train-the-trainers model in basic colposcopy for cervical cancer prevention.
Method: This project was designed based on a philosophy known as Train-the-trainers which train proficient colposcopists and a cadre of local trainers who can continue to train and maintain their expertise in a self-sustaining system. The Train-the-trainers workshop is a 1-day program that focuses on three domains; knowledge, communication, and practical skills.
Objectives: Obese women are at increased risk of cervical cancer, partly due to missed detection of cervical precancers during routine cervical cancer screening. We administered a clinician survey to better understand specific challenges and identify potential solutions to performing cervical cancer screening and management in obese women.
Materials And Methods: We administered a web-based survey to 2,319 members of the American Society of Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology including questions related to challenges associated with cervical sampling and visualization in obese compared with normal weight women and potential strategies for improvement.
