Transcript PID in Rhode Island - Presented by Michael Gosciminski

How to Measure the Effectiveness of the IPP
(and all the CT Screening being done)?
**Reduce Infertility**
Ultimate Goal
Reduce PID
Tough to measure
Somewhat measureable,
but there is a question of
how accurately do
providers report PID due to
CT and GC.
Reduce Chlamydia Prevalence
Question:
Do we really have to reduce prevalence or is it enough to have a well
run screening program to find the infections in a timely manner
before PID develops in the female?
Measurable, but
does it accurately
evaluate the
effectiveness of the
IPP. After all, the
more screening
that is being
performed, the
more cases that
will be diagnosed.
Why all the Chlamydia
(and Gonorrhea) Screening?

ABSTRACT
Background: Chlamydia trachomatis is a frequent cause of pelvic inflammatory disease. However,
there is little information from clinical studies about whether screening women for cervical
chlamydial infection can reduce the incidence of this serious illness.
Methods: We conducted a randomized, controlled trial to determine whether selective testing for
cervical chlamydial infection prevented pelvic inflammatory disease. Women who were at high
risk for disease were identified by means of a questionnaire mailed to all women enrollees in a
health maintenance organization who were 18 to 34 years of age. Eligible respondents were
randomly assigned to undergo testing for C. trachomatis or to receive usual care; both groups
were followed for one year. Possible cases of pelvic inflammatory disease were identified
through a variety of data bases and were confirmed by review of the women's medical records.
We used an intention-to-screen analysis to compare the incidence of pelvic inflammatory
disease in the two groups of women.
Results: Of the 2607 eligible women, 1009 were randomly assigned to screening and 1598 to
usual care. A total of 645 women in the screening group (64 percent) were tested for
chlamydia; 7 percent tested positive and were treated. At the end of the follow-up period, there
had been 9 verified cases of pelvic inflammatory disease among the women in the screening
group and 33 cases among the women receiving usual care (relative risk, 0.44; 95 percent
confidence interval, 0.20 to 0.90). We found similar results when we used logistic-regression
analysis to control for potentially confounding variables.
Conclusions: A strategy of identifying, testing, and treating women at increased risk for cervical
chlamydial infection was associated with a reduced incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease.
