tailieunhanh - Western Kenya Cervical Cancer Prevention Project (WKCCPP)

Women with a positive VIA test in the pilot or early expansion phase, or a positive VILI test in the late expansion phase, were considered screen-positive and were counseled to go to the district hospital for further evaluation (“triage”) to determine what management was needed. Test results including a diagram of the lesion location on the cervix were noted on specially designed, client-retained cards (see Appendix 3) to be shown at the district hospital. | Western Kenya Cervical Cancer Prevention Project WKCCPP A collaboration with the Ministry of Health Mandeleo ya Wanawake Organization and Kenya Cancer Society Final Report December 2004 Acknowledgements We gratefully acknowledge the District Health Management Team in Busia the Health Center Management Committees and the dedicated health workers who incorporated this new service into their regular work and who helped document the results. In addition we want to recognize the commitment of the many community volunteers who organized or spoke at meetings and visited homes to mobilize women to take up the new services. Busia staff of the Ministry of Culture Sports Education and Welfare contributed to the community mobilization effort. We thank those in the Ministry of Health at the provincial and national level who provided support to the project especially those in the Reproductive Health Division who took up the challenge to develop a national strategy to address the problem of cervical cancer and those at the Kakamega Provincial General Hospital who developed a functioning screening and referral service. The experts on our Technical Advisory Group provided helpful guidance over the years. Our collaborating partners Maendeleo ya Wanawake Organization MYWO and the Kenya Cancer Association KECANSA made valuable contributions to the design and implementation of the project. Most importantly the women of Busia shared their wisdom and feedback to help inform the program model and then trusted it enough to come in and make use of the new preventive service.
