Human Papilloma Virus Awareness Intervention

"This study used the Safe and Protected Sex intervention (Báez et al., 2019), adapted and validated from an HIV prevention program to focus on HPV. The intervention consists of a single module with two stages aimed at increasing HPV knowledge by enhancing personal (self-determination) and social (controlled behavior) motivation.~Module 1: Nursing Consultation on HPV This structured, planned process follows Corona and Kaltmeier's (2012) horizontal methodology, promoting self-care through social support and trust in nurse-patient dialogue. The goal is to provide counseling on HPV prevention and responsible sexual behavior while acknowledging participants' prior knowledge.~Stage 1: A 4.21-minute educational video, HPV Fun Facts, uses persuasive narrative to explain HPV transmission, symptoms, complications, and prevention.~Stage 2: A 45-minute Friendly Educational Guidance session uses open-ended questions to explore participants' experiences."

a brochure is provided with general information about the human papilloma virus in men, including the form of contagion, diagnosis, treatment and the use of condoms for prevention.
