ABSTRACT:

In recent years, there has been an obvious and regular evolution of the etiological structure of severe infections in obstetrics and gynecology, associated with changes in the premorbid background of patients, the presence of complex hormonal disorders, chronic extragenital diseases, an increase in the number of immunocompromised patients, and, no less important, the expansion of the volume and nature of invasive medical interventions, widely and uncontrolled antibiotic therapy. Currently, there are various methods for diagnosing sexual infections: native and colored smear bacterioscopy, culture, serological (ELISA),DNA diagnostic (PCR), and the femoflor test system, which differ in sensitivity, ease of use, accessibility, and price. The correct choice of diagnostic method is very important, because various infections require reliable detection of "their" method and tests. The experience of STI treatment shows that the appointment of diagnostic measures and necessary tests to detect the disease requires an individual approach. Goal: Investigate volatile organic compounds of various classes that are characteristic of a certain type of sexually transmitted infections.
