The role of an over-the-counter vaginal pH self-test device package insert: Can subjects learn what the device is for and how to use it?
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to determine whether subjects could read and understand the package insert of a vaginal pH self-test device to improve self-diagnostic accuracy. The package correctly understood the role of vaginal pH as an aid in the diagnosis of vaginal symptoms while improving decisions to use an over-the-counter antifungal medication or to see a health care provider.
