Tóm tắt:
This study aims to estimate the prevalence of Lower Genital Tract Infections (LGTIs) and its related factors among
Khmer women of reproductive age in Can Tho City, Vietnam. A community-based, cross-sectional survey was conducted among 830 Khmer women of reproductive age in Can Tho City. The results of the study showed that 57.5%
of the surveyed subjects have LGTIs including clinical forms such as cervicitis, vaginitis and vulvitis, among which
cervical abnormalities account for a large part (58.9%). The rate of cervicitis among Khmer women living in rural areas
was highest at 84.0%. The prevalence of LGTIs was highest in the above 41-aged group (70.5%). Farmers were the
occupational group with the highest rate of LGTIs of 68.9%. In conclusions, 477 out of 830 Khmer women, or 57.5%,
were diagnosed with lower genital tract infections. There was a statistically signifcant association between the prevalence of LGTIs and age, residence, and Khmer women’s occupation.
