Meta-Analysis: Application of Health Belief Model to Breast Self-Examination (BSE)
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer is a type of non-communicable disease characterized by the appearance of abnormal cells in the breast. Breast self-examination (BSE) is one method of early detection of breast cancer. Health belief model is a health behavior that can predict women's interest in doing BSE. This study aimed to estimate the effect of the health belief model on the practice of BSE with a meta-analysis.
Subjects and Method: This research is a meta-analysis study using PRISMA flowchart guidelines. The article search process was carried out between 2015-2022 using databases from PubMed, Google Scholar and Scopus. Based on the database, there were 9 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The analysis was carried out using Revman 5.3 software.
Results: As many as 9 articles spread across 2 continents, namely Asia and North America. 8 main studies from Asia, 3 from Turkey, 2 from Iraq, 1 from Yemen, 1 from Iran, and 1 from Indonesia. One major study from North America, namely Mexico, reviewed in the meta-analysis showed that perceived benefits were strong (aOR= 1.03; 95%CI= 0.96 to 1.11; p= 0.440; I2=79%).
Conclusion: The perceived benefits were not statistically significant in predicting the practice of BSE in women.
Keywords: health belief model, perceived benefit, BSE
