Congenital syphilis is on the rise, making early detection and treatment more critical than ever. This episode equips obstetric care professionals with guidance on implementing syphilis screening, the latest updates on at-home testing, and managing infants with syphilis exposure. The conversation also explores how to collaborate with public health departments for improved syphilis diagnosis and data insights and best practices for working with the neonatal intensive care unit to manage congenital syphilis cases. Kimberly Stanford, MD, MPH, associate professor at the University of Chicago and director of HIV and sexually transmitted infection screening at the Chicago Center for HIV Elimination, and Ina Park, MD, MS, professor in the departments of family and community medicine and obstetrics and gynecology at UCSF School of Medicine and medical consultant with the CDC Division of STD Prevention, join Labor of Love host Veronica Pimentel, MD, MS, FACOG, to discuss best practices for implementing syphilis screening.

Special commentary provided by Victoria Mobley, MD, MPH, at the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Division of Public Health, and Christopher Golden, MD, FAAP, at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
