PROGRAM DESIGN
Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women in the Philippines.
In 2023, a total of 88 women died due to cervical cancer in Davao City. For the first quarter
of this year alone, a total of 13 women have succumbed to the disease.
Visual inspection with acetic acid is naked-eye examination of the uterine cervix, after
application of 5% acetic acid and interpreting the result after one minute. This is a simple
and inexpensive test for the detection of cervical precancerous lesions and early invasive
cancer. VIA, a globally recognized method of checking for cervical cancer, is affordable and
accessible. Its result is immediately known, unlike that of the PAP smear method.
III. OBJECTIVES:
IV. METHODOLOGY :
The activity is a whole day area visit for five (5) days. Health personnel will conduct
screening for VIA to women ages 26-65 years. If tested positive, the health personnel will
conduct proper referral to the Dept. of Health for treatment and intervention.
VI. PARTICIPANTS:
DOH Doctors - 2
