Overview

We will compare differences in sexually transmitted infection (STI) detection rates between sexual health survey (SHS)-derived electronic clinical decision support (CDS) versus usual care (e.g. no provision of CDS) using an interrupted time series design. We hypothesize that population-based STI detection rates will be higher when SHS-derived electronic CDS is provided compared to usual care. Secondary analysis will include a comparison of STI detection rates by sexual risk strata (high risk vs. at risk) and race/ethnicity.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adolescents aged 15-21 years seeking care in the emergency department

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients will be excluded if unable to understand English, are critically ill, cognitively impaired, or otherwise unable to provide consent for completion of the sexual health survey (SHS) and STI screening.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.
