Abstract

|
Sexually transmitted diseases (STD) are a major public health problem because their incidence is increasing worldwide despite prevention campaigns and because they raise the risk of HIV infection. Chlamydia trachomatis is the most prevalent bacterial sexually transmitted infection. Several thousands of cases still remain undiagnosed. Chlamydia infections are most often asymptomatic and can cause pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility to women and epididymo-orchitis to men. At present, there is no guideline for management of chlamydia infection in our country so it will help the patients and physicians to treat chlamydia infection and to make the suitable guideline for our country that we know about recent trends of Chlamydia infection guideline. The objective of this study is to know about recent trends of Chlamydia infection guideline focusing on Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) guideline publicated at 2009 and Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Canadian guideline publicated at 2006 and World Health Organization (WHO) guideline publicated at 2003.
