Abstract

Partner notification as a public health measure to reduce transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is a cornerstone of STI control in most countries. The success of any partner notification strategy is conditional on its acceptability and feasibility to both patients and health-care professionals, its compliance with relevant professional and legislative guidance, and its cost-effectiveness.
