Antenatal and postnatal cervical precancer screening to increase coverage: experience from Battor, Ghana

CONCLUSION: A significant number of women in Ghana only visit a health facility during pregnancy or after delivery.

Relying on community nurses ensures that such programs are readily integrated into routine care of women and no opportunity is missed.PMID:38414944 | PMC:PMC10898892 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2023.1616
