"This book describes the different STIs, new and emerging trends that are occurring, treatment options, and prevention efforts. A key component addressed in the book is reviewing at- risk populations, who often are an underserved population and at the highest risk for long-term health consequences that can occur with STI. This book brings an awareness of the impact of STI and how nurses working with all populations can increase their knowledge of STIs and be instrumental in addressing a serious global health problem"-- Provided by publisher.
