المستخلص: Trichomoniasis is estimated by the World Health Organization to account for almost half of all curable sexually transmitted infections worldwide. The most common tool for diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis infection is still microscopic examination of wet mount preparations. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of T. vaginalis among the pregnant women in Misurata-Libya. In addition, to determine the reliability and accuracy of the OSOM rapid test (laboquick T. vaginalis AG test) versus wet preparation for detection of Trichomonas vaginalis. Out of 125 samples 4 (3.2%) were positive for trichomoniasis as detected by laboquick T. vaginalis AG test, whereas only 1 sample (0.8%) was detected by wet mount preparation. laboquick T. vaginalis AG test showed a very high sensitivity (100%) compared to (25%) obtained by the wet mount method (p-value=0.000). In conclusion, that the prevalence of T. vaginalis in pregnant women in Misurat-Libay is 3.2% depend on laboquick T. vaginalis AG test which has a high sensitivity, easy and fast to perform, low coast, and does not need an expert. We recommend to include the investigation for T vaginalis as part of any routine examination for vaginitis.
