Culture testing for sexually transmitted Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection is widely used in Norwegian general practice. The gain from this testing is very low, since gonorrhoea is almost eradicated in Norway. This reduces the cost-effectiveness of the testing. In cooperation with a panel of medical microbiologists, gynaecologists, venerologists, general practitioners and public health specialists, we have reviewed the literature and drawn up a set of recommendations for the use of culture testing for gonococcal infection to suit the epidemiological situation in Norway. We emphasise clinical testing of men and women, partner notification and tests-of-cure. We do not recommend opportunistic screening for gonococci in any situation whatsoever.
挪威的普通医疗实践中广泛使用针对性传播淋病奈瑟菌感染的培养检测。由于挪威淋病几乎已被根除，这种检测的收益非常低。这降低了检测的成本效益。我们与一组医学微生物学家、妇科医生、性病学家、全科医生和公共卫生专家合作，查阅了文献，并制定了一套针对淋病感染培养检测的使用建议，以适应挪威的流行病学情况。我们强调对男性和女性进行临床检测、性伴侣通知和治愈检测。我们不建议在任何情况下进行淋病奈瑟菌的机会性筛查。
