A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to develop a mobile health (mHealth) system that sends text reminders to women with HIV, both pregnant and non-pregnant, to help them adhere to their treatment plans. The intervention will address barriers to HIV care such as stigma and medical mistrust while providing patient navigation and motivational interviewing. The researchers will evaluate the feasibility and acceptance of the mHealth system and its potential positive impact on patient health outcomes.
