Objective
The PaCUDAHL clinical trial tested a device for women to collect samples for HPV testing at home, provided by their family doctor. This study looked at whether the presence of doctors participating in the trial affected the behavior of women regarding cervical cancer screening.
Results
We studied 332 doctors and 70,983 women aged 25-65 over several years. The analysis showed that women from doctors involved in the trial did not have different cervical cancer screening rates compared to those from doctors not involved in the trial. This remained true both before and during the trial. However, there was a noticeable increase in screening rates for all groups over four years.
Conclusion
There was no significant observer effect on women’s screening participation due to the trial, but there was a general increase in screening among all women involved.
