title: [Genital chlamydial infection in women studied with the new Clearview Chlamydia diagnostic test].
abstract: For the first time in Bulgaria a clinical investigation was carried out using the direct antigen test Clearview Chlamydia for the diagnosis of Chlamydia infection in gynaecologic patients 130 women were examined in whom chlamydial infection was suspected. 43 patients (out of 130) were positive. The conclusion of the study is that the clinical signs of female genital chlamydial infection are not specific and for the exact diagnosis a laboratory test for detecting Chlamydia trachomatis must be carried out. The new diagnostic test Clearview Chlamydia is easy and rapid to perform and could be very useful for the office practice.
