STI Care Programme

Why it matters

STIs affect sexual, reproductive, maternal, newborn, HIV, and adolescent health, and untreated infections can carry long-term consequences. WHO STI guidance emphasizes prevention, screening, treatment, partner management, pregnancy considerations, and linkage to HIV and reproductive-health services.

InBasket AI keeps this programme pathway connected to one continuous patient record so a small care team can work from a single, trustworthy source of truth — part of expanding access to care for the next billion people.

Designed with reference to recognized global, national, and clinical standards

This care area is designed with reference to a standards ecosystem, including global guidance, national protocols, specialty-society recommendations, interoperability standards, and programme reporting requirements where applicable:

• WHO guidelines for the management of symptomatic sexually transmitted infections
• CDC STI Treatment Guidelines where locally applicable
• WHO guidance on prevention of mother-to-child transmission of syphilis
• National STI notification, partner-services, pregnancy, and HIV-linkage protocols
• National Ministry of Health standard treatment guidelines, essential medicines lists, and local scope-of-practice rules for the implementation setting
• HL7 FHIR, ICD-10, LOINC, SNOMED CT, and local terminology/coding standards where adopted
• National programme registers, surveillance definitions, DHIS2 or equivalent reporting requirements, and donor-reporting mappings where adopted
