Obstetrical providers who delivered more than 20 infants in Maricopa County, Arizona, USA, during the year 2008 were surveyed by telephone regarding their use of EPT. A total of 142 eligible respondents completed the survey, representing 34% (142\/421) of the delivering providers, 67 (47%) of whom reported the use of EPT in their clinics. Having received information about EPT was significantly associated with its use (67% versus 41%) ( P = 0.008). The most common reasons for not using EPT included the inability to obtain allergy history in partners (24%) and concern for liability (11%). Additional education regarding the use of EPT may increase the use of this personal and public health tool among some obstetrics providers in Maricopa County; however, concerns for liability may limit broad utilization. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2011.010492","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,7,9]],"date-time":"2011-07-09T02:48:08Z","timestamp":1310179688000},"page":"449-452","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Reticence to prescribe: utilization of expedited partner therapy among obstetrics providers in Arizona"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"M M","family":"Taylor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA"},{"name":"Sexually Transmitted Disease Program, Arizona Department of Health Services"},{"name":"Maricopa County Department of Public Health, STD Program, Phoenix, AZ"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M G","family":"Collier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Illinois College of Medicine Peoria, Peoria, IL, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M M","family":"Winscott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sexually Transmitted Disease Program, Arizona Department of Health Services"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T","family":"Mickey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maricopa County Department of Public Health, STD Program, Phoenix, AZ"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"B","family":"England","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maricopa County Department of Public Health, STD Program, Phoenix, AZ"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr-IJSA-10-492C1","first-page":"44","volume":"59","author":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention","year":"2010","journal-title":"MMWR"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-10-492C2","unstructured":"HolmesKK, SparlingPF, Per-AndersM.
