Clinical Trial Summary

Screen-and-treat approach reduces postabortal pelvic inflammatory disease after induced abortion, and at the same time alters women's sexual behavior and prevents further re-infection by sexually transmitted infections when compared to the universal antibiotic prophylaxis strategy.


Clinical Trial Description

While universal antibiotic prophylaxis during induced abortion has been proven to reduce postabortal pelvic inflammatory diseases, screen-and-treat approach has the potential benefit of altering women's sexual behavior and preventing further re-infection by sexually transmitted infections. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of the two approaches in preventing postabortal pelvic inflammatory disease and the women's sexual behavior. ;
