Overview
Trichomoniasis, the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infection, is underdiagnosed due to lack of screening, surveillance, and control programs. The most commonly used diagnostic test lacks sensitivity. Undertreating trichomoniasis can lead to adverse health outcomes and persistence of infection in sexual networks. This webinar evaluates a modern approach to managing this neglected disease.
Learning Objectives
In this video, participants will:
- Distinguish between BV and trichomoniasis in terms of epidemiology, pathogenesis, and adverse health outcomes
- Recognize clinical symptoms associated with both vaginal infections
- Discuss traditional and novel diagnostic methods for BV and trichomoniasis
- Illustrate how point-of-care testing could accurately and rapidly diagnose trichomoniasis
Access Includes:
- Video recording replay
- Presentation Slides (PDF)
