Screening for chlamydial cervicitis in a sexually active university population.

C K Malotte, E Wiesmeier and K J Gelineau

Center for Health Sciences, University of California-Los Angeles 90024-1703.

Enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assays to detect chlamydial cervicitis were performed on samples from 1,320 sexually active university women. Seventy-five (prevalence 5.7 percent) had positive tests. Demographic, history, symptom, and physical examination variables were insufficient to predict infection accurately. We conclude that screening during routine visits with this population is cost-effective.
