Audiovisual Informative Project for the Participants of the Cervical Cancer Screening in Osakidetza

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This study is designed as a double-blind clinical trial. Candidate patients for this study are women referred to a colposcopy consultation after an altered result of the screening test. Those women who have previously been in the colposcopy consultation or have had this test performed in a private center are excluded.
The initial recruitment is done by telephone. If they accept, they are given an appointment at the hospital one day where, after being informed again and signing the informed consent, they are randomized and assigned a group. There are 2 groups, in one they receive an envelope with the information in writing that was created in Osakidetza and is available on the website of said organization, and the other group receives a sheet with the links to the videos created for this study in the same envelope. In this way, both groups assume that they are receiving information and we avoid bias. The principal investigator is the one who carries out this phase and distributes the envelopes, but is unaware of their contents. Previously, a collaborator fills in the envelopes according to the randomization code and indicates outside the envelope the order in which they should be delivered. Only she knows the randomization code and she will not reveal it until the end of the study.
To analyze the level of anxiety, the participants will fill out 2 scales before receiving the information, and they will return them on the day of the colposcopy before performing it. The scales used are the Spielberger´s State-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) and the Cohen´s PerceivedStress Scale 14 (PSS14). The STAI scale has 40 items, scored from 0 (never) to 3 (very much) points. The final result can range between 0 and 60, higher scores are related to a higher level of anxiety. The PSS14 scale consists of 14 items with a five-point scale response format (0 is never and 4 is very often). The scale scores from 0 to 56; higher scores indicate higher perceived stress.
It will also be analyzed whether the waiting time until the colposcopy and the level of academic studies influence the level of anxiety. And the perception of the colposcopy will be analyzed, with the VAS scale, according to their level of anxiety and the way they received the information.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Audiovisual information
Group of participants to whom the information is given through an audiovisual medium.
|
The information provided to this group is in audiovisual format.
This information is what has been designed with the aim of reducing the level of anxiety of patients who participate in cervical cancer screening.
|
Placebo Comparator: Written information
Group of participants to whom the information is given through the writing that is available on the website of the health organization.
|
The information provided to this group is in written format.
This information is what is distributed to patients in the midwife's consultation and is available on the website of the health organization (Osakidetza)

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in the level of anxiety measured by the STAI scale according to the information format
Time Frame: Less than 6 weeks between the call notifying the altered result and the colposcopy
|
Change in the level of anxiety according to the information format Compare the level of anxiety between who have the information in audiovisual format and who have the traditional model in written format. For the analysis we will use the STAI (described in Study description). The analysis of the results will be done by comparing the basic situation of each participant and the response to the same survey after having the information provided. On the other hand, the results of the surveys between both randomized groups will be compared after having access to the information studied. |

Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Influence of waiting time for colposcopy on anxiety measured by the STAI scale
Time Frame: 6 weeks maxium
|
In this secondary objective, we analyze whether the waiting time from the day the patient knows that she has an altered test until the day of the colposcopy influences the level of anxiety.
Generally, the patient has to wait from 2 to 6 weeks from being notified of the altered result until the colposcopy.
We are going to group the patients into 3 groups (from 0 to 2 weeks of waiting, from 2 to 4 weeks and from 4 to 6 weeks of waiting) and we will compare the results of the STAI scale to see if this factor is significant in their perception of emotional stress.

Influence of academic level on anxiety measured by the STAI scale
Time Frame: 6 weeks maxium
|
The level of anxiety obtained through the STAI scale score will be stratified in the 6 educational level categories (none, primary, secondary, high school, university or professional training) to see if there are significant differences between them.

Change in colposcopy pain perception according to anxiety level measured by the STAI scale
Time Frame: 6 weeks maxium
|
We are going to analyze the pain perceived during the colposcopy, using the VAS scale (Visual Analogue Scale of pain) and we will compare them according to the level of anxiety detected in the STAI scale.
We want to determine whether the perception of pain worsens at a higher level of anxiety.
