U.S., Aug. 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07103928) titled 'Prison-Based HIV Partner Notification' on July 29.
Brief Summary: Assisted partner notification (APN) is a voluntary and confidential process that utilizes specially-trained health workers to encourage and assist people diagnosed with HIV to inform their sex and drug use partners about possible shared exposure to HIV. With APN, partners who have come in contact with HIV are notified about exposure and given information to protect themselves from contracting HIV in the future or to begin treatment, if needed.
This study compares two types of HIV partner notification. Incarcerated men with HIV will be recruited as "index participants"...
