OBJECTIVES: PNS is critical to prevent the spread of STIs. We evaluated the feasibility of integrating PNS into an STI clinic focused on MSM.
DESIGN/METHODS: The RI STI Clinic, in partnership with the RIDOH, implemented a PNS program in 2019. Interviews with patients diagnosed with gonorrhea/ syphilis were conducted. RIDOH attempted outreach to partners identified. We utilized interview data among MSM diagnosed with gonorrhea/syphilis in clinic from 1/1/19-12/31/2021. Bivariate analyses/multivariable logistic regression were conducted.
RESULTS: 341 MSM were diagnosed with gonorrhea/syphilis during the three-year period, and 233 (68%) interviews were completed. Partner information was provided in 173 (74%) interviews. At least one workable partner was provided in 110 (47%) interviews. No statistically significant associations between provision of workable partners and index patient age/race/ethnicity were found.
CONCLUSIONS: PNS at an STI clinic was successful, but challenges led to suboptimal information. Research is needed to identify barriers to integrate/optimize PNS in STI clinics.
