摘要
摘要:青少年的性传播感染率持续上升。为防止再次感染和发病,对患者及其伴侣进行治疗至关重要。快速伴侣治疗(EPT)是临床医生的一种合法选择。EPT 得到了美国疾病控制与预防中心(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)的认可,允许临床医生为患者的伴侣开具治疗某些性传播疾病的药物,而无需对伴侣进行评估。然而,EPT 的使用率并不高,多系统层面的障碍也阻碍了 EPT 的成功实施。本文回顾了 EPT 的适应症、EPT 的常见障碍和克服这些障碍的解决方案,以及开具 EPT 处方时的实际注意事项。
Abstract: Sexually transmitted infection rates continue to rise in adolescents and young adults. Treatment of patients and their partners is vitally important to prevent reinfection and morbidity. Expedited partner therapy (EPT) is a legally available option for clinicians. EPT is endorsed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and allows clinicians to prescribe medication for certain STIs for their patients' partner(s) without an evaluation of the partner(s). However, EPT is underutilized, and multisystem-level barriers exist to successful EPT exist. This article reviews the indications of EPT, common barriers to EPT and solutions to overcome these barriers, and practical considerations when prescribing EPT.
期刊介绍:
Pediatric Emergency Care®, features clinically relevant original articles with an EM perspective on the care of acutely ill or injured children and adolescents. The journal is aimed at both the pediatrician who wants to know more about treating and being compensated for minor emergency cases and the emergency physicians who must treat children or adolescents in more than one case in there.
