目的:这项研究是为了确定的准确性,液体为基础的巴氏(巴氏)涂片在检测阴道毛滴虫women.Study设计:203例连续的患者谁有液体为基础的巴氏涂片也进行了培养T阴道炎。如果有症状,则进行湿封片。结果进行了分析的敏感性,特异性,阳性和阴性predictionvalue.Results:44例患者(21.6%)有一个阳性的文化。在液基巴氏涂片上,28例患者(13.8%)为T迷走细胞阳性,显示敏感性为61.4%,特异性为99.4%,阳性预测值为96.4%,阴性预测值为90.8%。当湿封和文化进行比较,灵敏度为50%,特异性为93%,阳性预测值为77%,和阴性预测值为80%were given.CONCLUSION:T vaginal生物体的存在下,所述的液体为基础的巴氏涂片病理报告,是准确的,值得治疗,无需进一步测试。
OBJECTIVE: The study was undertaken to determine the accuracy of the liquid-based Papanicolaou (Pap) smear in the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis organisms in women.STUDY DESIGN: Two hundred three consecutive patients who had the liquid-based Pap smear also underwent a culture for T vaginalis. A wet mount was performed if symptomatic. Results were analyzed for sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values.RESULTS: Forty-four patients (21.6%) had a positive culture. On the liquid-based Pap smear, 28 patients (13.8%) were positive for T vaginalis, showing a sensitivity of 61.4%, a specificity of 99.4%, a positive predictive value of 96.4%, and a negative predictive value of 90.8%. When wet mount and culture were compared, a sensitivity of 50%, a specificity of 93%, a positive predictive value of 77%, and a negative predictive value of 80% were obtained.CONCLUSION: The presence of T vaginalis organisms, as stated by the liquid-based Pap smear pathology report, is accurate and warrants treatment without further testing.
