Active surveillance, a conservative option, reduces exposure to excisional risks while allowing timely treatment when needed. However, little is known about clinicians' perspectives, acceptability, and experience of offering active surveillance in the Australian healthcare context.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Aims<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To explore gynaecologists' perspectives, acceptability, and experiences in providing active surveillance to women diagnosed with CIN2.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Individual semi\u2010structured interviews were conducted with obstetrics and gynaecology specialists and trainees in secondary and tertiary healthcare settings across Australia.

Participants expressed positive views about active surveillance, regarding it as a safe option that does not increase long\u2010term cancer risk. When formulating management recommendations for CIN2, participants considered various interrelated diagnostic, patient, clinician, and policy\u2010level factors. To support shared decision\u2010making, participants used several communication strategies such as anatomical models and visual images to help address patient knowledge gaps and they provided patients with time and space to reflect on their preferred management plan. Participants identified strategies that could support offering active surveillance and patients' adherence to this, including enhanced clinician education and training, increased resourcing, and improved use of information technology to support follow\u2010up tests for active surveillance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
