摘要
Purpose: Vaginitis is caused by bacterial vaginosis (BV), Candida vaginitis (CV) and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV). This retrospective study evaluates the performance of the Aptima CV/TV, and BV assays on the automated Panther system.Methods: Two hundred forty-two multitest swabs were tested on the CV/TV assay and 422 on the BV assay. Positive and negative percent agreement (PPA, NPA) of the Candida glabrata (CG), Candida species group (CSG), TV and BV targets were calculated using a modified gold standard, with review of Gram smear and the usage of the Allplex Vaginitis Screening Assay to resolve discrepancies.Results: The PPA and NPA were respectively 98.4% and 95.9% for BV, 100% and 95.4% for CSG, 100% and 99% for CG, and 100% and 100% for TV, and when compared to consensus results.Conclusion: The CV/TV and BV assays surpassed the acceptance criteria threshold of 95%, and proved to be an excellent alternative to conventional testing. & COPY; 2023 Elsevier Inc.
