OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of and risk indicators for Chlamydia trachomatis cervical infection among women presenting for a periodic medical examination.
DESIGN: Prevalence study.
SETTING: Centre local de services communautaires (CLSC) Saint-Louis du Parc, Montreal.
PATIENTS: All women presenting for a routine gynecologic examination from May 1985 to July 1986. Of the 773 (99%) who agreed to participate 56 were excluded because of inadequate diagnostic tests (34), antibiotic intake in the preceding 6 weeks (19) or loss to follow-up after the initial visit (3).
OUTCOME MEASURES: Culture was the diagnostic standard, but rapid diagnostic tests were also used. From the identified cases logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the following risk indicators: age, place of residence, use of oral contraceptives, sexual partners and frequency, history of sexually transmitted disease (STD) and abnormalities found on genital examination.
MAIN RESULTS: Fifty-one of the women were found to have C. trachomatis infection, for a prevalence rate of 7.1%; 32 (63%) were completely asymptomatic. Three independent indicators were found: age of 25 years or less (odds ratio [OR] 3.2, 95% confidence limits [CL] 1.8 and 5.9), cervical erythema, contact bleeding or mucopurulent exudate (OR 2.5, 95% CL 1.4 and 4.5) and residency in the CLSC area (OR 2.3, 95% CL 1.1 and 5.1). A history of STD or vaginitis had a significant protective effect in women 30 years of age or more (OR 0.2).
CONCLUSIONS: Case-finding for chlamydial infection could be an effective public health measure among women 25 years of age or less and among those with signs of cervicitis when they present for a Papanicolaou test.
