Point-of-care Tests for <i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i> and <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i> : Review of the Literature

While some POCTs for C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae have achieved regulatory clearance, challenges remain, including the need to expand specimen type clearance to include extragenital specimens, to further improve turnaround times, and to decrease cost for adoption. There is need to optimize the use of POCTs in acute care settings to manage sexually transmitted infections.

Abstract

While some POCTs for C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae have achieved regulatory clearance, challenges remain, including the need to expand specimen type clearance to include extragenital specimens, to further improve turnaround times, and to decrease cost for adoption. There is need to optimize the use of POCTs in acute care settings to manage sexually transmitted infections.
