High-volume workflow and performance comparisons for Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae testing using automated molecular platforms

Table 2 Assay performance simulating high-volume CT/NG testing (n = 555^), results for Chlamydia trachomatis*^†

^*One CT specimen was not included in the CT method correlation because of an equivocal result generated by the Aptima Combo 2 assay (cobas CT/NG: “CT Positive” and Aptima Combo 2: “CT UNBEST”)
^†Comparison of cobas CT/NG for use on the cobas 6800 system and Aptima Combo 2 on the Panther system
^‡Calculated using McNemar’s test
Abbreviations: CI confidence interval, CT Chlamydia trachomatis, NPA negative percent agreement, OPA overall percent agreement, PPA positive percent agreement
