- Abstract
In the Primary Health Care context, the control of the development of colpocytological exams and their records of results in an effective way are fundamental tools for adequate control and clinical management of cervical cancer, besides allowing analysis of the epidemiological profile in each area of coverage. In order to analyze the Records Books of the results of colpocytological exams, 10 Family Health Units were selected. The survey comprised 2,054 exam records, of which 84.1% were performed on women aging 25-64 years. The lack of standardization of the record regarding the results among the units analyzed was observed, since there were considerable percentages of unfilled data and information for different aspects of the exams. This is evidenced when it is observed that in 100% of the results there was no information about the date of the last collection, 78.25% of the records did not report the suitability of the sample and 35.64% of the results did not define which epithelia were present in the sample collected. These data indicate that the control of the results is not being adequately performed, and it is essential to train the staff and standardize the records, aiming to improve the tracking actions and active search of women for cervical cancer prevention.
