BACKGROUND
Sex workers, people with drug addiction, early onset of sexual activity population, and criminal population, are considered the groups most at risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
AIM
To determine the prevalence of infection by Neisseria gonorrhoeae in inmates of the Preventive Detention Center (CDP) at Arica and Parinacota Region, Chile. The Scientific Ethical Committee of Universidad de Tarapacá approved this study.
METHOD
140 inmates participated, who voluntarily agreed to be part of the study and signed an informed consent. A sample of urethral meatus was taken to investigate N. gonorrhoeae, and an epidemiological survey was applied, which included age, drug use, overcrowding, among others.
RESULTS
The prevalence of the agent was 16.4% in inmates of the Arica CDP, a result lower than that reported in other similar studies.
CONCLUSION
Knowing the reality of the prevalence of this STI and some risk factors associated with the situation of deprivation of freedom in a tri-border area of northern Chile, contributes to the proposals for prevention programs in this vulnerable and at-risk population.
背景
性工作者、药物成瘾者、性活动早发人群和犯罪人群，被认为是感染性传播感染（STIs）风险最高的群体。
目的
确定智利阿里卡和帕里纳科塔地区预防性拘留中心（CDP）在押人员中淋病奈瑟菌的感染率。塔拉帕卡大学科学伦理委员会批准了本研究。
方法
140名在押人员参与，他们自愿同意参与研究并签署了知情同意书。采集尿道外口样本以调查淋病奈瑟菌，并进行了一项流行病学调查，包括年龄、药物使用、过度拥挤等。
结果
阿里卡CDP在押人员中该病原体的感染率为16.4%，这一结果低于其他类似研究报告的感染率。
结论
了解智利北部三国交界地区这种性传播感染的流行现状以及与自由被剥夺状况相关的一些风险因素，有助于为这一脆弱且高危人群制定预防方案。
