  1. BASHH 09 Asymptomatic Screening Audit Case Notes Audit

  2. Recommendations audited against • Sexually Transmitted Infections: UK National Screening and Testing Guidelines August 2006 http://www.bashh.org/guidelines • Recommended Tests for AsymptomaticPatients

  3. Case definition • No symptoms offered on presentation (either on a triage form, or similar form, or on direct questioning by a healthcare worker) • Seen during a first meeting in a new or re-book episode

  4. Methods • First 30 consecutive patients seen during 1 January 2009 to 31 March 2009 • Questionnaire designed by NAG, available at: http://www.bashh.org/groups • Data electronically submitted May to July 2009 using Feedback Server software and downloaded for analysis using Microsoft Access and Excel. • Pseudonymised data only collected • Data collated and aggregated by Region, and by NHS Trusts/Clinics within Regions

  5. Results – contribution of cases, N= 4428 • 4428 cases from 157 clinics (~60% of all GU Medicine clinics) • Regional contribution: 2-17% • London regions: 32% of cases • New cases: 3296 (74%, regional range 58-94%) • Rebook cases: 1132 (26%, 6-42%)

  6. Results – gender & sexual preference, N= 4428 • Men: 2297 (52%, 43–59%) • Heterosexual: 2078 (47%, 37–56%) • MSM: 219 (5%, 2–7.5%) • Women: 2131 (48%, 41–57%) • Pregnant: 14(0.3%, 0–1.3%)

  7. Results – age distribution, N= 4428

  8. Results – ethnic group, N= 4428

  9. Asymptomatic heterosexual men n=2078 * Urethral culture only for gonorrhoea: 1194 (58%, 2-98%) ** Recommended if urethral specimen not available

  10. Asymptomatic MSM, n= 219 * Urethral culture only for gonorrhoea: 119 (54%, 9-100%) ** Recommended if urethral specimen not available

  11. Asymptomatic MSM: rectal and throat gonorrhoea culture

  12. Asymptomatic women n=2131 * recommended if urethral specimen not available Chlamydia: any of cx NAAT, vv NAAT, urine NAAT, ur NAAT, ur cult, cx cult,vv cult: 2082 (98%, 94-100%) Gonorrhoea: any of cx culture, cx NAAT, vv NAAT: 1770 (83%, 53-99%) Gonorrhoea: any of cx NAAT, cx cult, vv NAAT, urine NAAT, ur NAAT and ur cult: 1981 (93%, 83-100%)

  13. Asymptomatic women: rectal and throat gonorrhoea culture

  14. NAAT testing for gonorrhoea

  15. HIV testing* overall N=4428 *EIA, point of care or oral fluid tests (n=3) Nationally, any HIV test done: 248 of 287 (86%, 0-100%)

  16. HIV testing in Black Ethnic Groups (n=287)

  17. HIV testing in heterosexual men (n=2078)

  18. HIV testing in MSM (n=219)

  19. HIV testing in women (n=2131)

  20. Hepatitis C antibody testing • 566 of 4420 cases (13%, 4-57%) tested (8 known to have hep C antibody) • MSM: 89 of 219 MSM (41%, 0-100%) tested (none known to have hep C antibody)

  21. Conclusions • High overall rates of testing with BASHH CEG first line recommended tests for chlamydia, syphilis and HIV • High overall rates of testing for gonorrhoea in women when NAATs included • Important number of cases having N. gonorrhoeae NAATs, including urine GC NAATs (45% MSM) • Urethral microscopy ~ 20% men • Cervical microscopy ~ 10% • Most MSM tested for HepB (80%) • Predominance of hepatitis C testing in MSM

  22. Suggested Areas for Practice Improvement/Interventions • Increased documentation of discussion about oral and anal sex, as recommended in the BASHH recommendations on sexual history taking to identify which anatomical sites need to be sampled for infection • Regional strategies should be considered to balance nucleic acid amplification testing for gonorrhoea with culture testing to monitor antibiotic sensitivity • Increased screening for hepatitis B in MSM is needed in some regions. • Increased screening for HIV is needed in some regions, particularly for women
