ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of syphilis prevention and control in Hubei Province from 2011 to 2020, to summarize the experience and practice, to analyze the existing problems and causes, and to study and put forward policy and strategy suggestions, so as to provide reference for formulating the national “14th five-year plan” and carrying out the next step of prevention and control work. Methods The National STD Prevention and Control Management Information System, STD Prevention and Control New Media Health Service Platform, National AIDS Comprehensive Prevention Information System, and National Management Information System for the Prevention of AIDS, Syphilis, and Mother-to-Child Transmission of Hepatitis B were used to analyze and evaluate the completion of main prevention and control indicators in Hubei Province. Results Among the 16 evaluation indexes, 10 indexes including the effectiveness of syphilis promotion and training for various groups of people, the proportion of pregnant women undergoing syphilis testing in the monitoring and testing work, and the effectiveness of syphilis prevention and treatment, all met the requirements of the plan. In addition, some of the 5 indexes failed to meet the requirements of the plan. Conclusion Hubei Province has fairly fulfilled the work requirements of the Plan. It is still necessary to strengthen the syphilis prevention and control to ensure the urban pregnant women infected with syphilis and their infants to receive standardized STD diagnosis and treatment services, and the drug users in the drug maintenance treatment clinic to receive free syphilis testing, and to provide referral services for the syphilis antibody positive patients at AIDS voluntary counseling and testing points.
