The training will provide a detailed overview of the stages of syphilis, including the criteria used for accurate staging, which is essential for effective treatment planning and follow-up care. Participants will learn about the differences between traditional and reverse screening algorithms. Additionally, the session will cover the interpretation of syphilis titers to distinguish between new and past infections. This webinar will provide the knowledge and insights needed to make confident diagnostic and treatment decisions for patients at various stages of syphilis, ultimately improving health outcomes and contributing to broader public health efforts in syphilis and congenital syphilis treatment and prevention.
