Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A national audit of gonorrhoea clinic policy and case management was carried out by postal survey on behalf of the National Audit Group of the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV. Ninety-three clinics out of a total of 278 (33%) and 1324 cases were included. The results showed that both the auditable outcome measures listed in the National Guideline for the Management of Gonorrhoea in Adults and the evidence-based outcome standards recently published by Low et al. were broadly being met.
