  2. sexually transmitted infections (STIs) • Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) include • those infections, which are predominantly transmitted through sexual contact from an infected partner.

  3. Although the transmission of the infections is mostly due to sexual contact, other modes of transmissioninclude • placental (HIV, syphilis) • by blood transfusion or infected needles (HIV, hepatitis B or syphilis) • Sharing tools and needle stick injuries • Mixture of infectious body fluids (blood, semen, vaginal secretions)

  4. From a pregnant woman to her infants through breast milk • by inoculation into the infant’s mucosa when it passes through the birth canal (gonococcal, chlamydial, or herpes) • Infestations (scabies and pubic lice) can also be transmitted through shared clothing, bedding, linens etc.

  5. BODY FLUIDS: Which are considered to be infectious • Semen • Vaginal fluid • Blood • Fluid in sores or blisters • Saliva • Tears • Sweat • Urine • Ear wax

  6. METHODS OF TRANSMISSION:Low Risk or No Risk • Hugging • Kissing • Holding hands • Dancing • Sharing lip balm • Massage • Sharing forks, knives, etc. Sitting on toilets

  29. There is rising incidence of STIs throughout the globe the reasons for this are: • Rising prevalence of viral infections like HIV, hepatitis B and C. • Increased use of ‘Pill’ and IUCD which cannot prevent STI • there is an increased promiscuity • Lack of sex education and inadequate practice of safer sex. • Increased rate of overseas travel. • Increased detection due to heightened awareness.

  30. STI symptoms

  31. STI symptoms • unusual discharge from the vagina, penis or anus • N. gonorrhoeae • C. trachomatis • trichomoniasis • genital herpes (especially primary HSV-2 infection).

  32. STI symptoms • Genital, Anal, or Perianal Ulcers ,blisters ,sores around the genitals or anus • Genital herpes • syphilis • chancroid

  33. primary syphilis: (3 days – 3 months), painless sore called a chancre

  34. Genital Herpes

  35. STI symptoms • Painful or burning urination • (Urethritis ) • N. gonorrhoeae • C. trachomatis

  36. STI symptoms • Sore, swollen lymph nodes, particularly in the groin but sometimes more widespread • Lower abdominal pain • Fever • Rash over the trunk, hands or feet

  37. Secondary syphilis: (2 – 24 weeks) rash on the body, palms of hands & soles of feet, hair loss, feeling sick • Secondary: (2 – 24 weeks) rash on the body, palms of hands & soles of feet, hair loss, feeling sick

  42. investigations

  43. investigations • blood tests • (Serological test : can confirm the diagnosis of HIV or later stages of syphilis. • DNA base detection(PCR) or (LCR) • ELISA

  44. investigations • Urine samples. • Fluid samples. • Swab and Culture required the urethral,ulcer,cxand rectal • Collecting serum from vesicle by syringe • Tissue culture

  45. treatment

  46. Treatment depending on the infection • Antibiotics: a single dose, can cure many sexually transmitted bacterial and parasitic infections, including (gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia and trichomoniasis) • it's important to abstain from sex until you've completed treatment and any sores have healed. • Antiviral drugs. You'll have fewer herpes recurrences if you take daily suppressive therapy with a prescription antiviral drug.

  47. Clinical Prevention

  48. Clinical Prevention • The prevention and control of STDs are based on the following major strategies : • accurate risk assessment and education and counseling of persons at risk on ways to avoid STDs through changes in sexual behaviors and use of recommended prevention services. • identification of asymptomatically infected persons and persons with symptoms associated with STDs

  49. Clinical Prevention • effective diagnosis, treatment, counseling, and follow up of infected persons • evaluation, treatment, and counseling of sex partners of persons who are infected with an STD • Use of barrier contraception: Condom, diaphragm, spermicides
