Change Topic: Does provider education concerning syphilis screening in the third-trimester impact screening rates within obstetric medical facilities within a three-month timescale, compared to a context where there was no education? Untreated syphilis in pregnant women contributes to neonatal mortality, stillbirth, neurologic impairment, and bone deformities. I conducted a secondary search to identify and critically appraise the scholarly articles relevant to the change topic.
