Abstract
This article aimed to cover the range of techniques used in partner notification for sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. Many of the current methods were developed over the past 50 years, and very little operational research has since been undertaken to refine them. More work is needed to evaluate inexpensive strategies to improve patient referral, to determine the psychological and behavioral impact of partner notification and methods of incorporating social networks in partner notification programs.
