Test-to-PrEP: A Randomized Hybrid Implementation/Effectiveness Trial of a Social Network Strategy to Increase Equitable Reach of HIV Testing and PrEP Information
Bravo A, Butts S, Johnson AL, Rodriguez E, Rabin B, Smith L, Kanamori M, & Doblecki-Lewis S
This study evaluates a peer-distribution model where existing PrEP clients disseminate HIV self-test kits containing PrEP education materials within their social networks to increase testing and PrEP awareness. The protocol provides an example of utilizing the dyad census to systematically survey all alter pairs within the network followed by a per alter edge form stage which enables the capture of attribute data on the edges generated.
