  • A Study of Chlamydia Trachomatis: Sexual Risk Behaviour, Infection and Prevention in the Australian Defence Force
    A study of Chlamydia trachomatis: sexual risk behaviour, infection and prevention in the Australian Defence Force Stephen Mark Lambert Diploma of Teaching; Bachelor of Education; Masters in Public Health A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2014 School of Medicine I Abstract There is limited research in Australia focusing on C. trachomatis infection at a population level utilising systematic non-random recruitment methodologies. In addition, little is known in the Australian Defence Force (ADF) about the prevalence of C. trachomatis and of risk behaviours that may impact on sexual health. This study utilised an existing process in the ADF, the Annual Health Assessment, to source new information about C. trachomatis infection and about sexual risk and behaviour. The outcomes of this research may assist the ADF to maintain the health of personnel and consequently a high degree of operational preparedness, and may contribute to the understanding of C. trachomatis prevalence in Australia and across the world. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of C. trachomatis infection and to identify potential high risk populations in the ADF with a view to discussing secondary prevention interventions for the control of C. trachomatis infection within the ADF. Seven hundred and thirty-three ADF personnel were recruited into the study over a 24 month period. Participants were asked to complete an 8 page comprehensive survey about sexual behaviour and to provide a urine sample to be tested for C. trachomatis. Ethics approval was received from both the Australian Defence Human Research Ethics Committee and the University of Queensland Medical Research Ethics Committee.
