NCT ID NCT06900829

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing whether setting up special HIV teams in hospitals can increase testing for undiagnosed HIV. The teams will remind doctors to test patients with certain health conditions, reduce stigma, and improve care links. Over 5,200 patients across ten European countries will be involved. The goal is to catch HIV earlier and improve outcomes.
