To address the significant barriers to PrEP implementation for those who were assigned female at birth and self-identify as a woman and address racial inequities in HIV prevention in the United States (US), a novel approach that accounts for multilevel influences is necessary. This study is one part of a multi-component project and involves a patient-level intervention in one public health family planning clinic in Duval County Florida, where the majority of patients are women of color. The area has one of the highest HIV incidence rates among women in the US. The investigators developed a tablet-based decision support tool that helps users learn about HIV vulnerabilities and HIV prevention strategies to inform how they consider options for reducing their likelihood of acquiring HIV. Participants will be randomized to use the HIV decision support tool before their visit or standard counseling (without the use of the tool) and will be surveyed about the use of the tool, experiences with HIV prevention counseling, and intentions about the use of HIV prevention. A subset of participants, all individuals who self-identify as a woman and as Black or Latina, will also complete a post-clinic visit interview. The investigators will follow-up with participants at three months following their initial visit to see if they have initiated the HIV prevention method(s) they chose at their visit. The main outcomes will include a quantitative and qualitative assessment of PrEP or other HIV prevention use, decisional certainty, and satisfaction with information about HIV prevention options.
Hypotheses:
Although 13% of the U.S. female population is Black, 60% of new HIV diagnoses in U.S. women occur among Black women. The South is the epicenter of the U.S. HIV epidemic, including in women, and Black Southern women are disproportionately affected: Black women account for 69% of new HIV diagnoses in women in the South. As the first highly effective, discrete, woman-controlled HIV prevention method, oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine radically expands HIV prevention options for women. However, uptake of PrEP in U.S. women has lagged, particularly among groups most affected by HIV.
PrEP cascades outline the necessary steps for accessing PrEP, including screening and identifying eligible individuals, linkage to care, prescription, and initiation of PrEP. Data suggest there are multilevel barriers related to the process of screening for HIV risk in women and identifying potential PrEP candidates that may drive a significant drop off early in the PrEP cascade for women. Women report feeling judged by risk assessment questions and experience stigma around disclosing sexual practices. As a result, if screening is required to educate patients about PrEP - as is true in most clinical settings - many women for whom PrEP is appropriate may never learn about PrEP. Further, women have low levels of knowledge about HIV risk and HIV prevention options, and therefore will not seek out PrEP services themselves. By offering education to all women about vulnerabilities to HIV as well as information about HIV prevention methods including PrEP, at-risk women can circumvent these multifactorial barriers and request PrEP. Electronic decision support tools (DST), which have been used with success in a range of healthcare contexts including contraception, provide an efficient and private mechanism for this information-sharing step.
The study team developed a tablet-based tool that is designed to provide universal PrEP education and facilitate women's agency to identify their own risks and interest in PrEP. It was refined with iterative feedback from patient and community stakeholders and finalized based on cognitive testing.
The DST provides information about vulnerabilities to HIV and core characteristics of different HIV prevention methods, and then the opportunity to explore these characteristics in depth, including efficacy, safety and side effects. The user chooses the level of information that they wish to receive through the interactive interface, allowing for an individualized experience. Upon reaching the end of the tool, information on the tablet suggests that women ask their provider about HIV prevention methods they are interested in using, based on their preferences for method characteristics, and their questions in order to facilitate deliberation with the provider. The DST takes approximately 10 minutes to complete.
Approximately 200 women presenting to one reproductive health clinic in Duval County, Florida, will be randomized to standard counseling plus use of an HIV prevention DST, providing education about PrEP and encouraging self-assessment of HIV risk, or standard counseling alone. In addition to the experimental intervention, a subset of 40 participants (20 per arm) will be asked to allow audio-recording of their counseling sessions with a provider. A subset of up to 40 additional participants (20 per arm), all of whom self-identify as women of color, will be invited to complete one-hour, semi-structured interviews after their clinic visit about their experiences of using the DST, HIV prevention counseling, and decision making about PrEP.

COVID-19 disrupted normal clinic operations, including limiting HIV/PrEP counseling, and paused a state-wide PrEP campaign for cisgender women. This study was conducted at a single, publicly funded clinic with few providers and recruited primarily English-speaking participants and is not generalizeable to other populations. Further, there were too few participants who identified as non-cisgender women or reported injection drug use to report on experiences of those populations.

| Intention to Use Any HIV Prevention Method | A one-time, one-item measure of plan to use HIV prevention method after the initial visit. Participants can select from "none", condoms, PrEP, post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), treatment as prevention, regular HIV testing (inclusive of partner), "still thinking about my options", or other method. | Immediately post baseline visit |
| Confidence in Decision to Use an HIV Prevention Method | A one-time, one-item measure of certainty of plan to use HIV prevention after the initial visit. Participants can select from 4 options: 1 ("completely unsure"), 2 ("mostly unsure"), 3 ("mostly sure, but not 100%"), or 4 ("100% sure"). | Immediately post baseline visit |
| Satisfaction With Information Received About HIV Prevention | Participants will be asked a one-time question regarding satisfaction with HIV prevention counseling. Response options include: 1 ("I was not given any information about HIV), 2 ("very unsatisfied") 3 ("somewhat unsatisfied), 4 ("neither satisfied or unsatisfied"), 5 ("somewhat satisfied") and 6 ("very satisfied"). | Immediately post baseline visit |
| Perceived Quality of Information Received About HIV Prevention | Participants will be asked four questions about the perceived quality of the HIV prevention information patients received during their health care visit: 1) getting the information they needed, 2) the ease of understanding the information, 3) the trustworthiness of the information, and 4), the usefulness of the information. These questions will be asked of those who reported talking about HIV/HIV prevention during their visit with the healthcare provider or health educator OR those who talked to the healthcare provider or health educator about their chances of getting HIV. Response options are 1 to 5 "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". Higher values indicate greater perceived quality. | Immediately post baseline visit |
| Acceptability of HIV Prevention Methods | Participants are asked to rate their preference for a method (even if they never used it). Participants can select from condoms, PrEP, PEP, partner HIV testing, regular STD testing, treatment as prevention or other method. The option, "never heard of it" is also included. Options for this scale range from 0 ("Terrible method for me") to 10 ("Great method for me"). | Immediately post baseline visit |
| Acceptability of the Decision Support Tool | Participants are asked four questions about their experiences using the DST (e.g., degree to which they got all the information they needed, found the information to be easy to understand, trust the information, and found information useful).

| Secondary | Confidence in Decision to Use an HIV Prevention Method | A one-time, one-item measure of certainty of plan to use HIV prevention after the initial visit. Participants can select from 4 options: 1 ("completely unsure"), 2 ("mostly unsure"), 3 ("mostly sure, but not 100%"), or 4 ("100% sure"). | participants who completed immediate post-visit survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
|
| Secondary | Satisfaction With Information Received About HIV Prevention | Participants will be asked a one-time question regarding satisfaction with HIV prevention counseling. Response options include: 1 ("I was not given any information about HIV), 2 ("very unsatisfied") 3 ("somewhat unsatisfied), 4 ("neither satisfied or unsatisfied"), 5 ("somewhat satisfied") and 6 ("very satisfied"). | participants who completed immediate post-visit survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
|
| Secondary | Perceived Quality of Information Received About HIV Prevention | Participants will be asked four questions about the perceived quality of the HIV prevention information patients received during their health care visit: 1) getting the information they needed, 2) the ease of understanding the information, 3) the trustworthiness of the information, and 4), the usefulness of the information. These questions will be asked of those who reported talking about HIV/HIV prevention during their visit with the healthcare provider or health educator OR those who talked to the healthcare provider or health educator about their chances of getting HIV. Response options are 1 to 5 "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". Higher values indicate greater perceived quality. | participants who completed immediate post-visit survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
|
| Secondary | Acceptability of HIV Prevention Methods | Participants are asked to rate their preference for a method (even if they never used it). Participants can select from condoms, PrEP, PEP, partner HIV testing, regular STD testing, treatment as prevention or other method. The option, "never heard of it" is also included. Options for this scale range from 0 ("Terrible method for me") to 10 ("Great method for me"). | participants who completed immediate post-visit survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
|
| Secondary | Acceptability of the Decision Support Tool | Participants are asked four questions about their experiences using the DST (e.g., degree to which they got all the information they needed, found the information to be easy to understand, trust the information, and found information useful). Response items vary from strongly disagree to strongly agree. | group randomized to the DST | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Perception of the Decision Support Tool | Participants in the experimental arm will be asked about the degree to which they liked/disliked the tool. Response options vary: "I did not like it at all", "I somewhat disliked it", "I somewhat liked it", "I really liked it". | Group randomized to DST | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Satisfaction With the Decision Support Tool | Participants in the experimental arm will be asked about the degree to which they were satisfied with the information in the tool. Response options vary from 1-5: "very unsatisfied" to "very satisfied". | Group randomized to the DST | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Recommend the Decision Support Tool | Participants in the experimental arm will be asked whether they would recommend the tool a friend. Response options are "yes", "no", "unsure". | Group randomized to the DST | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
| Secondary | Willingness to Use the Decision Support Tool at Future Visits | Participants in the experimental arm will be asked about whether they would use the tool again if they returned to the clinic. Response options are "yes", "no", "unsure". | Group randomized to the DST | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | Immediately post baseline visit |
|
|
|
| Secondary | HIV Prevention Method Use (Any Method - Planned or New Method) | A self-reported measure of HIV prevention method use, including those who reported discontinuing the initial HIV prevention method(s) that were reported post-clinic visit. A response of "yes" to any of the following questions: since your [baseline] visit, have you used….for HIV prevention - abstinence, condoms, PEP, PrEP, regular HIV testing, treatment as prevention, regular sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing, other method. The outcome will be dichotomized to those who responded affirmatively vs other responses ("no"/"unsure"). | participants who completed 3-month follow-up survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | 3 months post baseline visit |
|
|
|
|
| Secondary | HIV Prevention Method Continuation | A self-reported measure of HIV prevention method continuation. A response of "yes" to any of the following questions: are you still using - abstinence, condoms, PEP, PrEP, regular HIV testing, treatment as prevention, regular sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing, other method. The outcome will be dichotomized to those who responded "yes" vs "no". | participants who completed 3-month follow-up survey | Posted | Count of Participants | Participants | 3 months post baseline visit |
