Detection of Chlamydia trachomatis in Samples from Urogenital Tract by VIDAS Chlamydia Test: An Evaluation

OBJECTIVE To evaluate Bio-Merieux VIDAS (VITEK Immune Diagnostic Assay System) Chlamydia test (CHL) and to determine its sensitivity and specificity by comparing with clinical diagnosis. METHODS Chlamydia trachomatis in urogenital sample was detected by VIDAS CHL. If the results of VIDAS were different with clinical diagnosis, the results would be confirmed by direct fluorescent-antibody assay (DFA). RESULTS CHL infection was defined in 83 (17.9%) of 463 urogenital samples by clinical diagnosis, and in 93 (20.1%) (by VIDAS) CHL, the sensitivity and specificity were 92.2% and 100%, and 100% and 96.8%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Comparing with the expanded gold standard, VIDAS CHL sensitive and specific for C. trachomatis in urogenital specimens, with simplicity and short running hours (1 h). VIDAS is a good tool for detect (C. trachomatis) in routine laboratory.
