What this trial studies
This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Systems Analysis and Improvement Approach (SAIA) in enhancing the integration of HIV prevention and treatment services within family planning clinics in Mombasa County, Kenya. It involves a cluster-randomized trial comparing SAIA to usual procedures, focusing on increasing HIV counseling, testing, and linkage to care among new family planning clients and adolescent girls and young women. The study will analyze both quantitative and qualitative data using the RE-AIM framework to assess reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the intervention. Additionally, it will estimate the cost and budget impacts of SAIA from a public health perspective.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study include new family planning clients and adolescent girls and young women seeking reproductive health services in Mombasa County.
Not a fit: Patients who are not seeking family planning services or are from clinics expected to close within the next year may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve access to HIV prevention and treatment services for women and adolescent girls in East and Southern Africa.
How similar studies have performed: Previous studies using similar integration approaches have shown promise, indicating potential for success in this novel application.
