Technology Based Community Health Nursing(TECH-N) to Prevent Recurrent STIs After PID II
Sponsor: Johns Hopkins University
Summary
The investigators are enrolling 150 young women 13-25 years old diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in Baltimore to receive community health nurse (CHN) clinical support visits and short messaging system communication support for 30 days. The investigators' intervention group(TECH-PN) will receive additional testing and treatment in the field. The investigators hypothesize that repackaging the recommended Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) follow-up visit using a technology-enhanced community health nursing intervention (TECH-N) with integration of an evidence-based sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention curriculum will reduce rates of short-term repeat infection by improving adherence to PID treatment and reducing unprotected intercourse and be more cost-effective compared with outpatient standard of care (and hospitalization).
