BACKGROUND: Sexual assault survivors are at increased risk for sexually transmitted infections. Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner programs guide sexually transmitted infection treatment, monitoring, and follow-up scheduling according to guidelines by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Reported low rates of provider adherence to CDC treatment guidelines and patient adherence to follow-up necessitate a review of medication prescribing and follow-up scheduling practices, especially at smaller community hospitals in the United States.
METHODS: A retrospective medical record review was conducted to assess adherence rates to CDC guidelines for prescribing practices, scheduling, and follow-up of sexual assault survivors. We included pediatric and adult patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) and participating in the ED Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner program at a rural, community-based teaching hospital in La Crosse, WI, from January 2018 to December 2021. Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate results.
RESULTS: Analysis included 103 patients. Prescribing adherence to CDC guidelines was >80% for all except human immunodeficiency virus (53.4%), trichomoniasis (68.1%), and hepatitis B (69%). Of the 38 patients who had a follow-up scheduled during their ED encounter, 78.9% attended their scheduled follow-up and 94.7% of those appointments were scheduled within the CDC-recommended time frame, leading to an overall adherence of 40%.
CONCLUSIONS: Adherence rates were high for most prescribing practices, and attendance of scheduled follow-up was higher than expected. Opportunities to improved adherence to CDC guidelines were identified in prescribing for 3 disease states (human immunodeficiency virus, trichomoniasis, and hepatitis B) and in scheduling of follow-up.
