Nurse practitioners and nurse midwives perform Pap smears routinely as a part of well-woman health care. However, the clinician may not understand the terminology used to express the results of the test or the rationale for strict adherence to correct technique. Information on basic histology and cytology is presented with the goal of helping the clinician understand what the cytologist is looking for and what the results from a Pap smear mean. Two sets of nomenclature for results are presented. Risk factors for development of cancerous and precancerous conditions of the cervix and the controversy regarding frequency of Pap smear sampling are discussed, as are guidelines for treatment and referral of women with class II Pap smears.
执业护士和助产士通常会进行巴氏涂片检查，作为女性健康护理的一部分。然而，临床医生可能不理解用于表达检查结果的术语，也不理解严格遵循正确技术的基本原理。本文介绍了基本组织学和细胞学信息，目的是帮助临床医生了解细胞学家在寻找什么，以及巴氏涂片检查结果意味着什么。文中给出了两组结果命名法。讨论了子宫颈癌和癌前病变发展的风险因素以及巴氏涂片采样频率的争议，还讨论了II级巴氏涂片女性的治疗和转诊指南。
