護理師正向一位 16 歲女性教導 HPV 疫苗。哪項資訊是正確的？
A nurse is teaching a 16-year-old female client about the HPV vaccine. Which information is correct?
- AIt is recommended even if the client is already sexually active.✓ 正解即使客戶已有性行為，仍建議接種。
- BOne dose provides lifelong protection.接種一劑即可提供終身保護。
- CThe vaccine is only for females.該疫苗僅適用於女性。
- DThe vaccine treats existing cervical cancer.該疫苗可治療現有的子宮頸癌。
本題旨在評估護理師對於人類乳突病毒（Human Papillomavirus, HPV）疫苗的知識及衛教能力。HPV 疫苗是預防多種癌症（如子宮頸癌、肛門癌、口咽癌等）和生殖器疣的有效工具。護理師在向青少年提供衛教時，必須提供準確的資訊，澄清常見的誤解，強調疫苗的保護範圍、接種對象和時程，以促進疫苗接種率，提升公共健康。正確的衛教對於鼓勵年輕人接種疫苗，進而降低 HPV 相關疾病的發病率至關重要。
This question assesses the nurse's knowledge of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and ability to provide health education. The HPV vaccine is an effective tool for preventing several cancers (such as cervical cancer, anal cancer, and oropharyngeal cancer) and genital warts. When educating adolescents, the nurse must provide accurate information, clarify common misconceptions, and emphasize the scope of protection, target population, and schedule of the vaccine in order to promote vaccination uptake and improve public health. Accurate teaching is critical to encourage young people to be vaccinated and to reduce the incidence of HPV-related diseases.
HPV 疫苗的接種建議，包括適用對象（男女皆可）、即使有性行為仍建議接種、多劑次接種以及預防而非治療的特性，在美國和台灣的公共衛生政策和臨床指引中是高度一致的。兩地護理師的衛教內容都會遵循這些原則，以推廣疫苗接種，降低 HPV 相關疾病的發生率。唯一的差異可能在於不同國家/地區推廣的疫苗廠牌或涵蓋的病毒株數量。
