Abstract:
Background: In Thailand, there is an increasing rate of syphilis infection and a recent study
found that a significant factor of treatment failure and re-infection was due to a loss of follow-up.
Therefore, continuous follow-up is crucial for a successful treatment and to control the disease.
Objective: To study factors affecting continuous follow-up treatments among patients
infected with syphilis at Phramongkutklao Hospital.
Materials and Method: This is a retrospective cohort study of 111 patients diagnosed with
syphilis at Phramongkutklao Hospital from 1 January 2012 30 April 2022. The results of
demographic data, clinical presentations, serology (VDRL, TPHA), sexual behaviour,
treatments and follow-up plans are included.
Results: From the study, factors significantly affecting continuous follow-up treatments
included occupations, domiciles, and presenting conditions. Regarding the domicile factor,
patients in the Central part were ten times more likely to continue the follow-up treatments
than those in the Southern region (P = 0.045). In comparison to patients who got health
check-up or donated blood, patients who firstly diagnosed during antenatal care and those
with the presence of neurological symptoms were seven times (P = 0.004) and ten times
(P = 0.048) more likely to have continuous follow-up, respectively. In addition, the frequency
of patients with other occupations was three times more than soldiers and polices (P = 0.018).
Interestingly, among patients who continued their follow-up treatments, most medical
professionals failed to complete syphilis treatment follow-up guideline.
Conclusion: From this study, potential factors affecting continuous follow-up treatments
among patients infected with syphilis included occupation, presenting clinical symptoms,
and domiciles. Therefore, these factors should be taken into consideration for the treatment
and follow-up plans for patients infected with syphilis.
