Abstract

Scottish Government guidelines identify hepatitis B vaccination as a key standard reflecting access to sexual health care for men who have sex with men (MSM). This audit was performed before and after service redesign to assess the impact of the integration of genitourinary medicine and sexual and reproductive health services on the provision of care to MSM. There was no significant difference between the proportion of males receiving at least one dose of vaccination (p = 0.64, χ(2 )= 0.222), but a significant drop in the proportion of males receiving three doses of vaccination pre- and post-integration (p = 0.0157, χ(2 )= 5.834). Advised standards are being met but follow up and recall require improvement if previously reported completion rates are required for protection.
