Prevalence of Sexually Transmitted Infections Among People Attending the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases Clinical Trial

Official title:
Prevalence of Sexually Transmitted Infections Among People Attending the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway: a Cohort Study at the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway.

Clinical Trial Summary

In this study the investigators seek to register the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STI) among people attending the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway. The main aim of this study is to gather representative data on STIs after sexual assaults. Consequently, if the attendance for medical follow up turns out to be good/sufficient, prophylactic (antibiotic) treatment can potentially be omitted.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients who attend sexual assault centres are often concerned about being infected with STIs. Therefore, the patients attending sexual assault centres are offered examination and often receive prophylactic treatment against some STIs (e.g. chlamydia trachomatis, HIV and hepatitis B).

In this study, the investigators seek to register the prevalence of STI among people attending the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway. The primary aim of the study is to gather representative data on STIs after a sexual assault. Furthermore, the investigators want to evaluate if there are any variables that can predict transmission after a sexual assult. Results from this study will also be compared with findings of STI in the general population.

At the Sexual Assault Centre in Oslo, Norway, patients are routinely offered three medical follow up consultations. Consequently, if the attendance at follow up visits turns out to be adequate, prophylactic (antibiotic) treatment can potentially be omitted.

Since victims of assault are in a vulnerable situation, it would be useful to be able to inform them more precisely about infection risk and provide adequate prophylactic treatment. More knowledge about the incidence of infection after abuse will increase patient safety and improve the quality of treatment for these patients. ;
