  Title A clinical audit of a nurse colposcopist: Colposcopy, cytology, histology correlation Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal (down)  
  Volume 21 Issue 3 Pages 13-23  
  Keywords Nurse practitioners; Professional competence; Diagnosis; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract A clinical audit was undertaken to assess the diagnostic skills of the nurse colposcopist measuring colposcopy: histology: cytology correlation. At National Women's Health the first New Zealand nurse colposcopist training programme was developed in 2000. A retrospective audit of the colposcopy clinical records was performed during the nurse's training programme between July 2000 and March 2002. An 82% (82/100) histology: cytology: colposcopy correlation was achieved by the nurse in the third phase of her training programme. The results are comparable with other reported studies involving medical and nurse colposcopists. Expertise in colposcopy examination can be incorporated into the broader role of a Nurse Practitioner working in the area of women's health.
