Objective: To determine the socio-demographic profile of cervical cancer patients at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital in 2009-2019 based on educational level, parity, age, residence, and employment status and their relationship to cervical cancer stage at diagnosis. Methods: Comparative analytical study was conducted retrospectively based on medical records in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. The selection was based on data completeness: cervical cancer stages, sociodemographic profiles consisting of education level, parity, age, Java or non-Java Island resident, and occupation. Multivariate analysis calculated the association between socio-demographic factors and cervical cancer stages. Data were analyzed using SPSS v.22.0 and Microsoft Excel. Results: This study included 4,584 patients with complete data. Only 19.3% patients were in the early stage, 63.3% had less than three parities, 82.8% of patients had formal primary school education or less, 80.9% patients were aged 18-65 years, 88.3% patients resided in Java Island, and 80.5% didn’t have the occupation. There was a significant association (p <0.05) between cervical cancer stage and educational level (aOR= 0.86; 95% CI= 0.78-0.94) and age (aOR= 1.46; 95% CI= 1.18-1.40). There is no significant association (p >0.05) between cervical cancer stage and parity, residence, and employment status. Conclusion: Low education and old age (> 65-year-old) were associated with the advanced stage of cervical cancer at diagnosis.
