P1.36 Comparison of nugent criteria, amsel’s criteria and modified amsel’s criteria for diagnosing bacterial vaginosis with special emphasis on concordance of self and physician-collected samples [PDF]
Introduction Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common cause of vaginal discharge worldwide including India. Syndromic diagnosis and management is used across the country for STIs/RTIs. Aims of the study were 1) to evaluate the prevalence of BV based on Nugent’s, Amsel’s and modified Amsel’s criteria 2) to analyse concordance between self- and ...

P374 Overlap between amsel’s criteria, nugent’s gram stain score, and vaginal microbiota community state types [PDF]
Background Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is characterized by low-Lactobacilli and increased anaerobes. BV can be determined by clinical assessment (Amsel’s criteria) or microscopy (Nugent scoring); molecular methods are also under study. We investigated concordance between Amsel-BV, Nugent-BV and low-Lactobacillus vaginal microbiota identified via 16S rRNA
