NCT ID NCT06647797
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new communication strategy to encourage HIV testing in Uganda. The messages focused on how HIV testing can help people maintain stable relationships and have healthy families, especially with the availability of PrEP. Over 7,600 people receiving antenatal care or assisted partner notification services at two hospitals took part. The goal was to see if this approach was feasible and acceptable, and whether it increased partner testing and use of HIV prevention or treatment.
