About this trial
Primary objective of the study is to determine the extent that offering of self-sampling in addition to clinician-sampling Human Papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing will increase detection of HPV DNA through an increase in uptake rates of cervical cancer screening as compared to offering clinician-sampling HPV DNA testing alone.
The hypothesis is that offering additional self-sampling will increase the detection of high-risk HPV DNA by at least 7.7%.
