Cervical screening is an essential public health measure in the prevention of cervical cancer, and practice continues to evolve with new evidence and recommendations. In this episode of Talking O&G: A RANZCOG Podcast, host Dr Nisha Khot is joined by Associate Professor Jared Watts and Dr Anna Clare to unpack RANZCOG’s new Signposting Guideline: Cervical Cancer Screening in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. This discussion covers the rationale for the updated guideline and how it can support clinicians in day-to-day practice. Topics include HPV testing as the primary screening tool, risk-based recommendations, self-collection, and managing higher-risk and immunocompromised groups. The guests also explore approaches to trauma-informed care and guidance for special circumstances such as pregnancy, hysterectomy and non-sexually active patients. They also highlight the importance of culturally safe care, supporting patients to make informed decisions, and what’s next for cervical screening across Australia. While this episode focuses on the Australian context, we’ll be dedicating a future episode to cervical screening in Aotearoa New Zealand.  🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode: RANZCOG Cervical Cancer Screening Guideline RANZCOG Cervical Cancer Screening in Australia and New Zealand Patient Information Pamphlet PREVENT Project 📌 RANZCOG members can submit CPD at: https://shorturl.at/iq733 💬 If you found this episode valuable, please rate, review, subscribe, and share it with your colleagues.
