description OBJECTIVE: The Gen-Probe PACE 2 deoxyribonucleic acid probe assays for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae are targeted against the ribosomal ribonucleic acid of each pathogen. Our study compared the performance of the probe assays with culture for Chlamydia trachomatis (246 patients) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (310 patients) while screening obstetric patients. STUDY DESIGN: Using culture as a gold standard, we assessed the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of the chlamydia and gonorrhea probes. RESULTS: The prevalence of chlamydia by culture was 13.4% and gonorrhea 4.8%. Against culture, the chlamydia probe assay performed as follows: sensitivity 93.9%, specificity 99.1%, positive predictive value 93.9%, and negative predictive value 99.1%. Values for the gonorrhea probe assay were 93.3%, 99.0%, 82.4%, and 99.7%, respectively. Additional molecular analysis of probe-positive—culture-negative specimens suggests that the gonorrhea probe-positive predictive value may be even higher. CONCLUSION: The Gen-Probe PACE 2 deoxyribonucleic acid probe assays for chlamydia and gonorrhea appear to be promising as convenient, reliable, and cost-effective alternatives to conventional cultures in screening obstetric patients.
