The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends chlamydia screening at intake for all females in juvenile detention facilities. Identifying factors predictive of chlamydia could enable targeted screening, reducing costs while still identifying most infections. This study used demographic, arrest, and health data to identify factors associated with chlamydia among females aged 12 to 18 years entering a juvenile detention facility in San Diego during January 2009 to June 2010. The study created different screening criteria based on combinations of factors associated with infection and calculated sensitivity and proportion screened for each criterion. Overall chlamydia prevalence was 10.3% and was 4.2% among females reporting no sexual risk factors. No acceptable targeted screening approach was identified. High prevalence, even among females without risk factors, supports universal screening at intake.

In this regard, palliative sedation is often used to characterise the sedation of a patient to relieve distress in the context of palliative care where neither the inducement of unconsciousness nor the hastening of death is the intent of the practice. It is typically contrasted with terminal sedation which does, or can, mean the use of sedation in the context of bringing about unconsciousness with the aim of provoking an early death (a covert form of euthanasia). However, other terms are sometimes used to describe both palliative and terminal sedation and the lack of agreement between definitions complicates ethical analysis.
