Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of partner notification by general practice nurses with referral to a specialist clinic for people with genital chlamydia diagnosed in a community setting. We hypothesised that referral to a specialist would be more effective in ensuring treatment of the sexual partners of infected people than the simpler nurse-led strategy.
