RESUMEN

OBJETIVOS: determinar la prevalencia de cobertura de rastreo de cáncer mamario con mamografía y de cuello uterino con Papanicolau en la población accesible de la zona de influencia del Centro de Salud San Pantaleón (San Isidro, Buenos Aires, Argentina) e identificar factores socioeconómicos y culturales asociados a su realización MÉTODOS: estudio de corte transversal con datos recolectados a través de una encuesta autoadministrada a una muestra de conveniencia de mujeres seleccionadas consecutivamente a medida que concurrían al centro entre 06/2009 y 06/2010. RESULTADOS: fueron entrevistadas 474 mujeres. La tasa de autoreporte de haber realizado Papanicolau entre los 19 y los 70 años fue 61,1%(IC95%56,4 a65,6) y la de haber realizado mamografía luego de los 50 años, 51,1% (43,7 a 58,4). En el análisis multivariable, la del primero se asoció independientemente a un mayor nivel educativo (OR 3,4; IC95%1,7 a 6,5), a haber tenido hijos (OR 2,6;1,4 a 4,9), a reconocer un médico de referencia (OR 2,12;1,35 a 3,3) y a ser menor de 50 años (OR 1,7;1,1 a 2,7); y la de la segunda, a un mayor nivel educativo (OR 1,2;0,4 a 3,1), a no estar empleada (OR 1,84;0,94 a 3,6) y a reconocer un médico de referencia (OR 2,63;1,22 a 5,88). CONCLUSIONES: las frecuencias de auto-reporte de rastreo de ambas patologías fueron coincidentes con las reportadas a nivel nacional y menores que las recomendadas como estándares internacionales.

RESULTS: 474 women were interviewed. The rate of self-report of having performed a Pap test between the ages of 19 and 70 was 61.1% (95% CI 56.4 to 65.6) and that of mammography after 50 years, 51.1% (43.7%). to 58.4). In the multivariate analysis, the former was independently associated with a higher educational level (OR 3.4, 95% CI 1.7 to 6.5), having had children (OR 2.6, 1.4 to 4.9). ), to recognize a reference physician (OR 2.12, 1.35 to 3.3) and to be younger than 50 years (OR 1.7, 1.1 to 2.7); and the second, to a higher educational level (OR 1.2, 0.4 to 3.1), not to be employed (OR 1.84, 0.94 to 3.6) and to recognize a reference doctor (OR 2.63, 1.22 to 5.88). CONCLUSIONS: the frequencies of self-reported tracking of both pathologies were coincident with those reported at the national level and lower than those recommended as international standards.
