Screening and management pathways. pos = positive result; neg = negative result; sat = original cervical squamocolumnar junction fully visible. † A proportion (10%) of women with unsatisfactory and negative VIA or VILI test results were assumed to undergo endocervical curettage (ECC) on the same day. †† If colposcopy performed on the same day as HPV sampling and laboratory testing, assumed no loss to follow-up. ‡ Model assumes stage-specific cancer survival as described in text. ‡‡ A proportion (21%) of women with CIN3 were assumed to receive hysterectomy treatment, based on data from the micro-costing study.* CIN1 is assumed to be treated in once or twice-lifetime strategies only. ** Go to a sub-model of post-treatment natural history and recurrence [12].
