Routine screening for Neisseria gonorrhoeae is recommended for asymptomatic women at high risk of infection (see Clinical Intervention). All high-risk women should be screened during pregnancy. There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against screening all pregnant women or screening asymptomatic men. Recommendations to screen selected high-risk young men may be made on other grounds (see Clinical Intervention). Routine screening is not recommended for the general adult population. Ocular antibiotic prophylaxis of all newborn infants is recommended to prevent gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum.
