1 Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Surveillance Report, 2012 Minnesota Department of Health STD Surveillance System

2 Introduction Under Minnesota law, physicians and laboratories must report all laboratory-confirmed cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and chancroid to the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) within one working day. The MDH does not maintain statistics for other, nonreportable STDs (ex: herpes, HPV/genital warts). This slide set describes trends in reportable STDs in Minnesota by person, place, and time. Analyses exclude cases reported from federal and private prisons.

3 Introduction STD surveillance is the systematic collection of data from cases for the purpose of monitoring the frequency and distribution of STDs in a given population. STD surveillance data are used to detect problems, prioritize resources, develop and target interventions, and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions.

4 Interpreting STD Surveillance Data Factors that impact the completeness and accuracy of STD data include: Level of STD screening by healthcare providers Individual test-seeking behavior Sensitivity of diagnostic tests Compliance with case reporting Completeness of case reporting Timeliness of case reporting Increases and decreases in STD rates can be due to actual changes in disease occurrence and/or changes in one or more of the above factors.

5 Interpreting STD Surveillance Data The surveillance system only includes cases with a positive laboratory test. Cases diagnosed solely on symptoms are not counted. Previous years data included only cases that had a case report form and a matching lab report. This year s data additionally includes cases that had only a lab report and no corresponding case report form. This has increased the number of unknowns in some variables. Surveillance data represent cases of infection, not individuals. A person with multiple infections in a given year will be counted more than once. Caution is warranted when interpreting changes in STD numbers that can seem disproportionately large when the number of cases is small.

58 SURVEILLANCE SUMMARY

59 Summary of STD Trends in Minnesota From , the chlamydia rate increased by 86%. The rate of gonorrhea increased by 35% between 2011 and Rates of reported syphilis decreased in 2012 compared to Minnesota has seen a resurgence of syphilis over the past decade, with men who have sex with men and those co-infected with HIV being especially impacted. Persons of color continue to be disproportionately affected by STDs. STD rates are highest in the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
