NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - A substantial number of teenagers diagnosed with sexually transmitted infections in emergency rooms may not receive appropriate treatment, according to a new report.
Dr. Kathleen R. Beckmann and colleagues from Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, point out in an article in the Annals of Emergency Medicine that each year about a quarter of the sexually transmitted infections in the U.S. occur in adolescents, and many seek treatment in emergency departments.
