Primary Objectives Determine the effectiveness of dapivirine (25 mg) administered in a silicone elastomer matrix vaginal ring (VR), when inserted once every 4 weeks, in preventing HIV-1 infection among healthy sexually active HIV-uninfected women Assess the safety of…
This tool was developed to be used by peer outreach workers, peer educators, and other community-based health providers to help provide comprehensive information about pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to key population peers.
This tool can assist providers in assessing acute HIV infection (AHI) in clients using oral PrEP, PrEP ring, and CAB PrEP by offering guidance through three steps: HIV testing, recent exposure to HIV assessment, and AHI assessment. Providers are encouraged to use clinical judgement and defer to national guidance as needed.
