What the study is about

The goal of this interrupted time series quasi-experimental design study is to implement universal opt- out HIV testing and linkage to HIV preventive care in 15-21 year old adolescents visiting the pediatric emergency department (ED). The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • What is the uptake, reach and effectiveness of universally offered, opt-out HIV screening across pediatric EDs after implementing an adapted version of a tablet-based screening process?
  • What is the successful linkage to comprehensive HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) care using a novel, digital health platform? Participants will
  • Complete the previously developed and validated computerized sexual health screen (cSHS) containing questions regarding their personal sexual health history
  • Have the opportunity to opt-out of clinician-ordered HIV testing
  • Patients meeting CDC criteria for HIV PrEP will be given the opportunity to enroll in the digital health PrEP linkage platform and followed for 3 months after enrollment.

Being studied: Universal Opt-out HIV Screening

Conditions: HIV Infections
