Qvintip enables women to tell whether they are at increased risk of cervical cancer by using a simple at home self-sampling kit.
Qvintip® is a self-sampling kit including analysis for high-risk HPV. Testing for high-risk HPV is critical for women deprived of smear testing – 65% of women afflicted by cervical cancer have not been smear tested.
Even if you have regular pap smears, HPV tests offer extra security − 25% of the women that get cervical cancer each year had normal results in their most recent smear test1. Smear tests aren’t as sensitive as HPV tests.
HPV testing is more important the older you get. Women that are HPV positive in middle age are often carrying long-lasting infections, which may have caused cell damage.
The home self-sampling kit has a plastic wand, a small plastic sample tube, a response envelope and instructions. The wand is used to collect a small sample of vaginal secretion. The tip of the wand then goes in the sample tube and is sent in to our lab. An analysis identifies the incidence of high-risk HPV and test results are returned to users’ homes by mail. Please refer to the self-sampling instructions for more details
