NCT03019770

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test a clinical Decision Aid that will help patients and providers determine if pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is the right decision. The Decision Aid will be tested in both clinical and non-clinical settings with 80 patient-provider dyads. The investigators hypothesize that the use of the Decision Aid will reduce patient decisional conflict. The investigators predict that it will increase patient and provider knowledge of and intent to initiate PrEP.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Decisional Conflict Scale

    Decisional conflict will be measured for patients before and immediately after reviewing the Decision Aid, as well as 3 months later.

    30 minutes prior to intervention, 5 minutes after intervention, 3 months after intervention

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Knowledge

    30 minutes prior to intervention, 5 minutes after intervention, 3 months after intervention

Other Outcomes (5)

  • Acceptability of Decision Aid

    5 minutes after intervention

  • Shared Decision Making Questionnaire

    5 minutes after intervention

  • Use of PrEP since intervention

    3 months after intervention

  • +2 more other outcomes

Study Arms (1)

PrEP Decision Aid

EXPERIMENTAL

All participants in the study will go through the Decision Aid with a provider.

Behavioral: PrEP Decision Aid

Interventions

All participants will participate in a simulated or actual clinical visit with a healthcare provider. During this visit, they will review the Decision Aid which will give them an HIV risk score and ask questions about their values. The goal of these visits will be to make an informed decision about whether or not to begin using PrEP.
