Abstract Background Human Papillomavirus infection (HPV) is among the most common sexually transmitted infections with the highest incidence and prevalence worldwide. HPV has been established as the main cause of cervical cancer and remains a public health problem globally. In Western Oromia, Ethiopia cervical screening remains a major issue because of limited resources, and shortage of HPV testing technology. As a result, the prevalence of HPV and associated factors remain unknown among HIV-positive women. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of HPV and associated factors among women living with HIV attending Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) services in public health facilities of East Wollega and West Showa Zones, Ethiopia, 2022. Method Using a cross-sectional study design, a total of 415 women ≥ 18 years old were enrolled using systematic random sampling from five public health facilities. Cervical specimens were collected by a trained nurse from April 01 2022, to May 30, 2022, and tested at Nekemte Public Health Research and Referral Molecular Biology, a certified/accredited laboratory for HPV-DNA Polymerase Chain Reaction by expertise using Abbott m2000rt-PCR assays. Finally, Epi data version 4.6 was used for data entry and SPSS version 24.0 were used for data cleaning and analysis, and frequencies and prevalence of HPV were computed. Variables were identified using the multivariable model and statistically significant associations of variables were determined based on the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with its 95% CI and P-value |
