Venient Cx STI Basic is a disruptive, non-invasive test for the evaluation of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
It is based on routine blood and urine analysis and is powered by both proprietary machine learning and public algorithms, and provides highly accurate primary diagnostic information, including the likelihood of various types of STIs, such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), syphilis, chlamydia trachomatis, mycoplasma genitalium, mycoplasma hominis, neisseria gonorrhoeae, trichomonas vaginalis, ureaplasma parvum and ureaplasma urealyticum. As a first-line test, the parameters measured provide guidance on diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic options. Although these results usually provide preliminary guidance, in certain scenarios they can be decisive.
It is based on the evaluation of antibodies in blood and the determination of STI by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
In case of a positive result, the diagnostic report may suggest a specific secondary test of choice to further diagnostic information, confirm therapies, establish prognoses or follow up the disease.
If an STI is suggested, other tests will be recommended as appropriate.
