Coaching doctors to prevent HIV in teens: a new approach
NCT ID NCT06804382
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a one-on-one coaching method called academic detailing can help pediatricians feel more comfortable prescribing PrEP, a daily pill that prevents HIV. Fifty doctors will take part in brief, interactive sessions with a trained educator. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and acceptable, and if it leads to more teens and young adults getting the prevention they need.
