Testing a New Rapid Gonorrhea Test for Women in South Africa
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a new quick test that detects gonorrhea (a sexually transmitted infection) in pregnant women and women with vaginal symptoms. The test gives results fast and could help women get treated quickly if needed.

This study tests a new rapid test that checks pregnant women for HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and syphilis during prenatal care. The goal is to see if this test works well and can help keep mothers and babies healthy.
This study compares two ways of testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea — the usual laboratory test versus a faster, point-of-care test done at the clinic. It looks at whether the faster test helps more people get the right treatment sooner.
This study checks whether a specific lab test (the “gyrA assay”) can detect gonorrhea in people who do not have symptoms. It may help clinicians find gonorrhea more quickly and with the right treatment when symptoms aren’t present.
This study is testing a quick, bedside test for syphilis in mothers and their newborns at a hospital in Uganda. If you've had a positive syphilis test during pregnancy, this study might help ensure your baby gets the right care quickly.
