title: A comparison of pregnancy tests.
abstract: An evaluation in terms of performance and cost was made of the Planotest, Pregnex, Gravindex, Prepurex, Planosec, Quick Test and Dap Test pregnancy test kits. It was found that Pregnex was the most accurate, but that it was expensive. Planotest, Gravindex and Prepurex were identical as far as results were concerned and they were comparable in price. In terms of readability, Gravindex, Pregnex and Prepurex were considered the easiest. Because many pregnancy test kits are available, we thought it desirable to compare these kits in terms of cost and performance.
