Intrapartum tests for group B streptococcus: accuracy and acceptability of screening

13 Oct 2010

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy and acceptability of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and optical immunoassay (OIA) tests for the detection of maternal group B streptococcus (GBS) colonisation during labour, comparing their performance with the current UK policy of risk factor-based screening. DESIGN: Diagnostic test accuracy study. SETTING AND POPULATION: Fourteen hundred women in labour at two large UK...
