Introduction
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) more than 340 million new cases of sexually transmitted bacterial and protozoan infections occur throughout the world every year. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) also known as Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) consist of diseases that are spread primarily through person-to-person sexual contact. STIs represent a significant public health concern.
The Savvygen™ STI CT/NG/TV is a CE marked assay allows the qualitative detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) by Real-Time PCR in urine or from a vaginal swab specimen. The test is intended as an aid in the diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) and/or Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) infections, in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals. The Savvygen™ STI CT/NG/TV is part of a wider STI panel which includes the detection of UU/UP and MG/MH
