Abstract 29P
Background
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer for women worldwide and in Indonesia. Breast cancer patients in Bali, especially in Denpasar, are mostly diagnosed during advanced stage. Among those late stage diagnosis, 40-50 years old being the most prevalent with young women (<40 years old) being above average in prevalence. Early detection such as Breast Self Examination (BSE) is very crucial to prevent late stage detection. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate factors affecting BSE behavior among female high school students in Denpasar City, Bali Province, Indonesia.
Methods
A pre-experimental cross-sectional study-based community was conduct on 11 January 2020 in Denpasar, Bali. The data is collected using a validated questionnaires to evaluate knowledge, attitude, behavior, information exposure, parent support, and peer support as factors affecting BSE behavior among female high school students. Data is analyzed using chi-square with p-value ≤0.05 is categorized as significant.
Results
82 respondents were involved in this study with a mean age of 15.93 ± 0,798 years. Mostly the students have high knowledge (63.4%), good attitude towards BSE (51.2%), BSE information exposed (58.5%), low parent support towards BSE (57.3%), and low peer support towards BSE (74.4%). The highest significant factor is knowledge (p= 0.001, OR=6.500), followed by BSE information exposed (p=0.003, OR=4.667), and peer support (p=0.023, OR=3.185).
Conclusions
We conclude that factors affecting BSE behavior among female high school students in Denpasar, Bali are knowledge, BSE information exposed, and peer support. We suggest greater attention in improving students’ knowledge, expose more information about BSE, and educate peer support towards BSE among female high school students in Denpasar, Bali.
