Study Details

This study evaluates strategies to improve access to HIV prevention through the integration of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) into existing healthcare settings, rather than limiting delivery to specialty clinics. The study addresses barriers to PrEP uptake, including limited awareness, stigma, and restricted access, and recognizes that availability alone may not ensure initiation or sustained use. The study includes two components. First, a longitudinal cohort of current PrEP users will be followed to assess changes in access, preferences, and PrEP use over time in real-world settings. Second, a dynamic decision-support toolkit will be developed and evaluated to support patients and providers in PrEP-related decision-making. The toolkit will include patient- and provider-facing components to support clinical decision-making, improve risk understanding, and facilitate integration of PrEP into routine healthcare. The toolkit will be refined and beta-tested in selected healthcare facilities in Botswana and Alabama.
