Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of the Girls' Health Screen as a screening instrument compared to a standard history and physical examination among females entering juvenile detention. Chi-square analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the results of the self-administered screen and the history and physical examination performed by a provider. The screen was administered to 119 females. A number of acute issues were elicited that were also statistically correlated with the history and physical exam making it a valid screen for urgent issues at the time of detention.
