visual acetic acid test for hpvFrom: enid (paxi@cybercable.net.mx)Sun May 25 11:00:04 2003
Hi, I am a 3rd year medical student at uag; mexico. I witnesed a doctor doing the visual acetic acid test on a menstruating young women. I belive doing that test during a menstrual period is not apropriate beacause can give a false positive result. Am I right? He pointed some acetowhite areas to me which I couldn't see as much as I tried. The patient had no clinical history of hpv, neither symptoms like abnormal bleeding...Then he did the bimanual exploration, and the patient experienced pain(He said that was PID)I think the pain was because she was in her menstrual period; besides she had a full bladder because he asked her not to urinate before exploration because he was going to do an eco.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education.
