Brief summary
About one third of the women referring to gynecological clinics present with vulvovaginal inflammation symptoms (vaginitis) possibly caused by seven different conditions or mixed infections. The Gyni™ system is intended to provide physicians with the means to obtain an accurate, fast and inexpensive diagnosis which is unavailable today. Gyni™ is comprised of a compact tabletop scanner, a disposable sample collector and a cloud based algorithm that provides a suggested diagnosis within 5 minutes. The trial is a prospective evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of using Gyni™ by comparing its usage outcomes in a practice setting to the outcomes obtained using the current standard of care.
