Screening for cervical cancer.
This case study describes a 48-year-old woman, non-smoker, who has no history of sexually transmitted diseases or other remarkable conditions in her medical history. She had a human papillomavirus (HPV) test and a Pap smear three years ago, the results of both negative. The woman’s 19-year-old daughter has recently become sexually active and the woman wonders if she should schedule a Pap smear for her daughter. The case study questions are based on USPSTF recommendations for cervical cancer screening and the updated evidence report and systematic review on screening for cervical cancer with high-risk human papillomavirus testing.
