Trichomonas vaginalis Polymerase Chain Reaction Compared with Standard Diagnostic and Therapeutic Protocols for Detection and Treatment of Vaginal Trichomoniasis

1 Sept 2002

Abstract excerpt

Wet preparation has limited sensitivity for diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) infection. An observational study of 337 women was conducted to evaluate a new polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for TV. The sensitivities of wet preparation and TV culture were 52% (95% confidence interval [CI], 41-62) and 78% (95% CI, 69-86), respectively. TV PCR had a sensitivity of 84% (95% CI, 75-90) and a specificity of...
