Abstract

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that symptomatic women be tested for common causes of vaginitis using a laboratory-based test and also be co-screened for sexually transmitted infections. The two most common non-viral sexually transmitted infections (nvSTIs) in the United States are Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), and CDC recommends testing for CT and NG using nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs). The study objective was to (1) quantify the frequency of vaginitis testing and (2) assess the co-screening rate for CT and NG.
