Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Feasibility as measured by the average number of times per day participants initiate an interaction with PrEP Smart

    4 weeks

  • Feasibility as measured by the average number of times per day subjects respond to a prompt from PrEP Smart over the course of the four week period.

    4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Barriers to adherence following missed doses as measured by daily PrEP Smart assessment.

    4 weeks

  • Acceptability as measured by questionnaire that includes questions about satisfaction and likelihood of recommending to others on a Likert scale of 1 to 4.

    4 weeks

  • Acceptability as measured by an interview that will be conducted by the Principal Investigator.

    4 weeks

  • Barriers to adherence will be measured by the number of times it was taken outside of a 1 hour window

    4 weeks

  • Barriers to adherence will be measured by self-report via the PrEP Smart application.

    4 weeks
