The screening tests should be reliable, valid, fast, and inexpensive. They should have few side effects, be minimally invasive, and be capable of detecting enough new cases to warrant the effort and expense. Results should be known immediately. No tests should be used that have negative side effects, are invasive, or cause embarrassment. Ethically, nurses should not screen for any problem unless they can refer those with positive results to a source for follow-up testing and treatment.
