The Sexual Health module was developed with the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO). Its aim is to measure the amount of STI screening and re-screening that is done by health services. The module reviews screening for the last 12 months for the target population of people aged 16-34 or screening during pregnancy. A detailed QRG is available at help.pencs.com.au/cat.htm
Screening
The module provides graphs to display the amount of screening for the following STI/BBV's:
- Chlamydia
- Gonorrhoea
- Trichomoniasis
- Syphilis
- Hepatitis B
- Hepatitis C
- HIV
Re-screening
The module provides a graph to review the amount of retesting done:
- Following a positive STI test result for Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea or Trichomoniasis
- The amount of testing done for Syphilis and HIV within 3 months of the positive result
- The amount of retesting done for the same STI within 4 months of treatment
Testing Patterns
The module provides graphs to review the activity for patients screened/not screened:
- Screened – number of visits, tests and coverage of tests
- Not Screened – number of visits
