CONT

test of cure. STD [sexually transmitted diseases] The re-culturing of a site of initial infection -- eg, gonorrhea, to determine whether the [patient] is cured.

CONT

Infection of the lower genital tract with Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the commonest sexually transmitted diseases. It is common clinical practice following treatment to repeat microbiological tests to ensure chlamydiae have been eradicated. This study was undertaken to investigate whether such a test of cure (TOC) is necessary and if so whether enzyme immunoassay (EIA) or cell-culture is the more appropriate test and how long after completion of treatment it should be done.

CONT

Because successful treatment rates are high, a test of cure is not usually performed.
