Summary

The purpose of the study is to develop and pilot-test a home-based intervention to facilitate sate HIV testing and disclosure within pregnant couples in order to increase use of prevention-of-mother-to-child-transmission (PMTCT) and family health services in Kenya.

Conditions

  • Human Immunodeficiency Virus

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Intervention- Home Visits

If a woman has been randomized to the intervention arm, a lay health worker will obtain detailed locator information (including cell phone contacts) and consult with the woman about optimal times for a home visit. The woman will be given a letter for her male partner to inform him about the study and potential upcoming visits, given that our preliminary research revealed that notifying the male partner beforehand is important. As described above, the intervention arm will consist of three home visits conducted by one female and one male lay health worker.
