Abstract

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection often presents without symptoms and may go undetected. Cervical cancer is commonly found among women of reproductive age, typically between 15 and 45 years. Several factors can increase the risk of cervical cancer, including early sexual activity (before the age of 20), multiple sexual partners, early-age pregnancy, smoking, a history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), high parity, use of hormonal contraceptives, consumption of immunosuppressive drugs, as well as unhealthy lifestyle and dietary habits. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge about cervical cancer and the attitudes toward HPV vaccination among women of reproductive age at Nagoya Clinic, Batam, in 2025. A cross-sectional study design was employed, with data analyzed using the chi-square test. The sample consisted of 55 women aged 15–49 years who visited or sought treatment at Nagoya Clinic, Batam City. The study found a statistically significant relationship between knowledge of cervical cancer and attitudes toward HPV vaccination among women of reproductive age (p-value = 0.009). Knowledge about cervical cancer is significantly associated with positive attitudes toward HPV vaccination. Increasing awareness and education regarding cervical cancer and HPV vaccination may contribute to improved preventive behaviors among women of reproductive age.

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding rates remain low in Indonesia, including at the Sapta Taruna Community Health Center in Pekanbaru, which reports one of the lowest coverage rates in the region. One of the contributing factors is pregnant women's limited knowledge regarding the importance of exclusive breastfeeding. Animated educational videos have the potential to deliver health information in an engaging, interactive, and easily understandable manner. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an animated educational video on improving pregnant women's knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding.  A quasi-experimental study employing a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted. The study included 49 pregnant women from the first to the third trimester, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding. Differences in knowledge scores before and after the intervention were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test.  Before the intervention, most participants demonstrated insufficient knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding (59.2%). Following the educational intervention, the majority of participants achieved a good level of knowledge (83.7%). The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test showed a statistically significant improvement in participants' knowledge after the intervention (p < 0.001). Animated educational videos are effective in improving pregnant women's knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding at the Sapta Taruna Community Health Center, Pekanbaru. Future studies are recommended to incorporate a control group and compare various educational media, such as infographics, printed educational modules, and mobile health applications, to strengthen the evidence regarding the effectiveness of breastfeeding education.
