The purpose of this study is to determine if an Audio-enhanced Computer-Assisted Self-Interview (ACASI) will lead to increase testing for sexually transmitted infections in youth visiting a pediatric ED

Conditions

  • Gonorrhea
  • Chlamydia

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

ACASI

Youth who participated in this study completed the ACASI -- they provided details about their sexual history, and the software program used their responses to create a recommendation for chlamydia/gonorrhea testing. The information obtained through the ACASI was integrated into the emergency department (ED) electronic medical record. ED physicians and nurses were able to review the information and order chlamydia/gonorrhea testing if needed.
