Improved contact tracing of Chlamydia trachomatis in a Swedish county--is genotyping worthwhile?

International journal of STD & AIDS - 1 Jan 2005

Osterlund Anders, Persson Tina, Persson Ingrid, Lysén Maria, Herrmann Björn

Abstract excerpt

The vast majority of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infections are non-symptomatic or mildly symptomatic. Efficient contact tracing and screening programmes are the most effective means to reveal these infections. We conducted a prospective study on the effects of contact tracing performed by specially trained midwives in a centralized municipality-based organization during one year. In order to improve the...
