| Description: THE PURPOSE OF THIS STI SYNDEMIC RESPONSE DEPLOYMENT & DATA MANAGEMENT SERIES is to Develop & Deploy Informatics Solutions to address the STI Syphilis Surge in Indian Country. SEE IHS CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER DIRECTIVE OCTOBER 25, 2022 Unfortunately, there is a surge in syphilis cases in Indian Country. After conferring with the IHS Infectious Disease Consultant, it is imperative that definitive action be taken to address STIs at all sites across the agency. Therefore, the following should be done at each service unit and community-based testing coordinated with your community health teams and public health nursing. 1. Annual syphilis testing for persons aged 13-64 to eliminate syphilis transmission by early case recognition. An annual EHR reminder should be turned on at all sites to facilitate testing for two years or until incidence rates decrease locally to baseline. 2. Adoption of an STI/HIV/Viral hepatitis testing bundle at all sites to screen broadly: a. Syphilis screening test with reflex RPR and TPPA b. HIV serology (with documentation of consent if required in the local state jurisdiction) c. Screening for gonorrhea and chlamydia at three sites: Urine, Pharynx, Rectum d. Screening for hepatitis B and C e. Pregnancy test 3. Adoption of "Golden Ticket Testing": On-demand, no-provider/no nurse lab visits for testing, including the above bundle 4. Enhance screening rates by screening out the hospital/clinic in the community a. Field testing at Chapter House or equivalent community centers, Health Fairs, community events b. Utilization of IWTK ( I want the kit) self-testing ( For information, contact Rick Haverkate) 5. Field treatments for syphilis by PHNs with Benzathine Penicillin. (For questions, contact Tina Tah or Melissa Wyaco) Let's work together to address this serious issue!! dr. C L. Christensen MD MBA MSJ FACS Chief Medical Officer Indian Health Service | ||
