01/01/1998 - "This study was undertaken to 1) identify the characteristics of emergency postcoital contraception clients, their acceptance of sexual health screening, and the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases in this group and 2) to determine the effect of the introduction of a consultation proforma on the quality of information obtained from the client"
