Patient Surveys Exit surveys 16 clinics in 9 states assessing prevention counseling within past 6 months Result: Significantly higher numbers of patients in clinics with written procedures to guide the provision of HIV prevention counseling reported receipt of prevention counseling and receipt of counseling “was not associated with patient race, gender, or sexual orientation.” JAIDS, Vol 37, Supplement 2, October 1, 2004
Recommended Standard of Care The Institute of Medicine recommends HIV prevention interventions (PwP) become a standard of care in clinical settings that serve HIV-infected patients. JAIDS , Volume 36, Number 4, August 1, 2004
Provider Identified Barriers • Lack of time • Lack of specialized training • Lack of funding for staff time • Some providers consider themselves “advocates for their patient rather than as guardians of the public health” JAIDS Vol 36 No 4 Aug 1, 2004
Importance of Providers 61 in-depth interviews with researchers and interventionists across 15 projects Findings: Models that requires PCP to deliver standardized assessment & counseling demand buy-in from the providers and someone in a position of power to enforce the change in clinical practice. AIDS Behav (2007) 11:517-529
HRSA SPNS Project Results Interventions Delivered in Clinical Settings are Effective in Reducing Risk of HIV Transmission Among People Living with HIV: Results from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)’s Special Projects of National Significance Initiative AIDS Behav (2010) 14:483-492
HRSA SPNS Project Results 5 year study across 13 demonstration sites N=3556 participants • Medical care provider intervention vs. health educator/social worker/HIV peer • Education targeted at reducing unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse with HIV uninfected or unknown status Results • All interventions associated with reduced unprotected sex • Medical care provider interventions resulted in significant decrease in risk after 12 months AIDS Behav (2010) 14:483-492
HRSA SPNS Project Results • HIV Primary care clinics are an important setting in which to deliver prevention messages as patients are likely to be seen for regular care four or more times per year. • Results suggested behavioral interventions are most effective if delivered in “doses”, such as routine medical care visits over time AIDS Behav (2010) 14:483-492
Integrating Prevention with Clinical Care “Based on our research, there is no one model that will both function and be accepted in every clinic.” “Successful integration depends on the complementary fit between the intervention model and the clinical setting.” AIDS Behav (2007) 11:S17-S29
