Официальное название
HIV Self-testing for Partners of HIV-uninfected Postpartum Women to Facilitate PrEP and Antiretroviral Therapy Uptake to Promote HIV Treatment and Prevention
Обзор
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a combination intervention to promote HIV self-testing (HIVST) for Partners and PrEP uptake for HIV-uninfected Postpartum Women ("H4P"). H4P includes evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies, such as communication skills training, motivational interviewing, and problem-solving. The investigators will conduct a randomized pilot trial of the H4P intervention to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of a multi-step PrEP uptake and HIV self-test kit intervention for postpartum HIV-uninfected women (N = 60 and their male partners) who report a partner of unknown serostatus, and their partners, in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
Вмешательства
- Поведенческое HIVST for Partners and PrEP uptake for HIV-uninfected Postpartum Women ("H4P").
For female participants, the intervention includes a 30-45 minute counseling session that will cover (1) SOC PrEP information, (2) communications skills training for HIVST kit distribution, (3) Motivational interviewing strategies (e.g., PrEP/HIVST pros/cons), (4) problem-solving barriers to PrEP uptake or HIVST distribution, (5) linkage enablers (e.g., care sites, transportation, asking questions of providers). For their male partners, an informative video will cover geographically diverse HIV
