[A screening test (questionnaire method) for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (author's transl)].
The autonomic nervous syndrome index (A.N.I.) for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease was examined in 188 women. Out of 71 women who had 10 points and more in A.N.I., 49 were diagnosed as chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. Of 117 women who had less than 10 points in A.N.I., 34 were chronic inflammatory disease. These results suggest that A.N.I. is a useful method for detecting chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.
