European guideline for the management of pelvic inflammatory disease.
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) remains one of the most important consequences of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) resulting in severe morbidity and acting as the economic justification for STI screening programmes. Early and appropriate therapy has the potential to significantly reduce the long-term complications of PID, and these evidence-based guidelines provide advice on the management of pelvic infection including the use of appropriate antimicrobial regimens.
