*Organizational and Socio-Psychological Difficulties of Management of Patients with Chlamydia… DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.109748*

The tactics of examination and treatment of patients with chronic persistent forms are not systematized, not generalized, and require a personalized approach. The latter is complicated, associated with high material costs, and may be insufficiently effective due to a number of socio-psychological and partner factors. The current practice of managing patients is aimed more at controlling exacerbations of chlamydial infection than at eliminating it.

The affective control of the spread of chlamydia infection requires raising public awareness about its nature, clinical manifestations, consequences, diagnostic capabilities, and preventive measures.

Simple educational activities about the importance and rules of condom use counseling, broader educational programs aimed at individuals or couples—are appropriate. These can raise awareness and promote consistent use. Communication training on sex education and teaching young people and adolescents how to resist provocative offers of sex without a condom can also be useful [9].

An important direction may be the reorientation of the doctor-patient interaction model from a biomedical health model to a biopsychosocial one, in which the patient is informed and consciously makes decisions regarding his health. This will require improving the communication competence of health care workers to achieve the necessary result.
