Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine, 03/06/09
Hicks P et al. - Patient self-collection occurred in 293 of 800 specimens (36.6%). GBS was detected in 13.31% of patient self-collected samples and 10.65% of physician-collected specimens (relative risk, 1.25; 95% CI, 0.85–1.84). The study had 90% power to detect a 10% difference in colonization rates. Patient self-collection with minimal instruction is not inferior to physician collection of specimens at detecting GBS colonization in a majority Hispanic population of lower socioeconomic status.
