To compare the effectiveness of the Cytobrush plus plastic spatula with that of the Cervex Brush for obtaining acceptable yields of endocervical cells in Papanicolaou smears.
We collected 309 smears over a 6-month period, 132 with the Cytobrush plus spatula and 177 with the Cervex Brush. About one-third of the patients in each group were pregnant. Numbers of endocervical cells in the smears were described as none, few, moderate, or many.
Moderate or large numbers of endocervical cells were collected from 60.5% of the women in the Cervex Brush group and 65.2% of those in the Cytobrush-spatula group. The percentages were not statistically different.
The Cytobrush plus spatula and the Cervex Brush sampling methods were equally effective in obtaining endocervical cells in routine Papanicolaou smears.
比较Cytobrush加塑料刮片与宫颈刷在巴氏涂片检查中获取可接受的宫颈管细胞产量的有效性。
我们在6个月的时间内收集了309份涂片，其中132份使用Cytobrush加刮片，177份使用宫颈刷。每组中约三分之一的患者为孕妇。涂片中宫颈管细胞的数量被描述为无、少、中等或多。
宫颈刷组60.5%的女性和Cytobrush-刮片组65.2%的女性收集到中等或大量的宫颈管细胞。这些百分比无统计学差异。
在常规巴氏涂片检查中，Cytobrush加刮片和宫颈刷采样方法在获取宫颈管细胞方面同样有效。
