Prioritising meaningful outcomes in the practice evaluation of new chlamydia testing guidelines
Abstract
Werner and colleagues' timely work aimed to estimate the impact of the new Dutch guideline, which restricts Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) testing at Centers for Sexual Health to individuals with symptoms or partner notification. Using pre-guideline Amsterdam data, they estimated that over half of CT diagnoses, all asymptomatic, would remain undetected.1
