- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <br> 1. Reduction of high and low grade smears in the HPV revealed arm, at the next screening round<br> 2. The difference in psychological and psychosexual outcomes in the HPV revealed arm as a consequence of knowledge of the HPV test result<br> 3. Cost: the number of women experiencing the cost generating events (cytology, HPV test, colposcopy, biopsy and treatment and ad hoc primary care consultations) will be identified and the associated unit costs will be estimated and attached to these events to determine total costs in each arm. Cost effectiveness will be presented as an incremental cost per additional high grade smear detected, and as an incremental cost per life year gained and per quality adjusted life year gained (estimated by extrapolating from the trial endpoint using modelling techniques).<br>
