STI Testing in Adolescent Males Presenting to an Emergency Department

There were low rates of CT/GC testing overall; however, visits by non-Hispanic Black adolescent males were more likely to include both testing and screening compared with non-Hispanic white males. More research is needed to determine possible cause of this racial difference and to identify strategies to mitigate potential racial differences in CT/GC testing in the ED.

More research is needed to determine possible cause of this racial difference and to identify strategies to mitigate potential racial differences in CT/GC testing in the ED.
