Closing the Gaps: Comprehensive STI Care for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and STI Co-Infections

Chlamydia and gonorrhea are two of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the U.S. and require a comprehensive approach to reduce the risk of transmission and to protect sexual health. This presentation will discuss the full continuum of care for STIs—from screening, symptoms, treatment, co-infection management, and re-testing—using current data and guideline-based strategies.

Join Dr. Kyle Bukowski as he discusses how recent STI incidence trends will be reviewed, as well as how these trends inform risk assessment and screening priorities across diverse clinical settings. This presentation will highlight best practices for implementing screening guidelines, including universal (or opt-out) screening, and demonstrate how to integrate these approaches into everyday workflows. The identification and management of co-infections with other STIs and vaginitis will also be addressed, emphasizing practical diagnostic and treatment considerations.
