Abstract

Sexual assault is common, disproportionately impacting women, persons of color, and young adults. Evaluation should include a history and exam, collection of forensic evidence, and evaluation for mental health disorders. Management of sexually transmitted infections (STI) is important, as 15% will acquire an STI. Prophylaxis is recommended for gonorrhea, chlamydia, and, for individuals with vaginas, trichomonas. HIV and hepatitis B post-exposure prophylaxis are indicated in high-risk scenarios. HPV vaccination is recommended. Follow-up and lab monitoring is indicated for up to 6 months. We aim to summarize up-to-date evidence on the screening, evaluation, and management of STIs following sexual assault.
