Abstract

Background: To determine if POSTAL TESTING KITS (PTK) and patient delivered partner therapy (PDPT) for managing sexual partners of women with Chlamydia trachoma is, reduce RE-INFECTION rates in women, compared to PARTNER NOTIFICATION by patient referral. Materials and Methods: Three hundred and thirty women testing positive for chlamydia, at clinics for genitourinary medicine, family planning and termination of pregnancy in Edinburgh, were randomized to one of three partner interventions: patient referral, PTK ( partners post urine for testing) or PDPT (1 g azithromycin for partners). Women submitted urine for Chlamydia testing every 3 months. The primary outcome was reinfection assessed as time to first positive result by the Cox proportional hazard regression. The proportion of partners tested or treated with each intervention was determined. Results: Out of 330 women, 215 (65%) were retested over 12 months. There were 32 of 215 women (15%) who retested positive (7, 15 and 10 women from the patient referral, PTK and PDPT groups, respectively).There was no significant difference in RE-INFECTION between PDPT versus patient referral (HR 1.32, 95% CI 0.50 – 3.56), PTK versus patient referral (HR 2.35, 95% CI 0.94 – 5.88) or PDPT versus PTK (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.24 – 1.24). There was no significant difference in the proportion of partners confirmed tested/treated between the patient referral (34%) and PTK (41%, p=0.32) or PDPT (42%, p=0.28) groups.Conclusion: PTK and PDPT do not reduce RE-INFECTION rates in women with chlamydia compared with patient referral. However, PDPT may offer other advantages such as simplicity and cost compared with patient referral.
