Abstract

Objective: The high incidence of cervical cancer, despite still-low screening coverage, presents a significant challenge especially for developing countries like Indonesia. Detecting cervical cancer risk can be one approach to increasing screening coverage. This study aims to develop and test the validity, reliability, and usability of the Integrated Sinara application as a database for identifying women at risk of cervical cancer. Methods: This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) design, utilizing the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) model. A total of 100 respondents in Maluku, Indonesia, participated in the application testing, selected through a purposive sampling technique. The Integrated Sinara application was developed as a mobile application connected to a web-based system for database storage. Results: The Integrated Sinara application demonstrated validity, with an r-count value exceeding the r-table value (r > 0.195), and a reliability coefficient of 0.891. The usability test result of 87.6% indicates that the Integrated Sinara application is highly feasible for use. Conclusion: The Integrated Sinara application can be used as a database for identifying women at risk of cervical cancer, making it easier for health workers to reach this at-risk group. Further research is needed to develop an iOS version of the application, evaluate the impact of the system, and assess its scalability in more diverse settings.
