Improving HIV Prevention and Substance Use Post-Sexual Assault Services

This study aims to improve services for young people (ages 17-25) who have experienced sexual assault, focusing on preventing HIV and addressing substance use. Researchers are testing an "enhanced intervention" that includes better access to sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) services, same-day access to nPEP (non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis, a medicine to prevent HIV after possible exposure) and DoxyPEP (doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis, a medicine to prevent certain sexually transmitted infections), and substance use screening. This enhanced care is compared to "usual care," which is the typical SANE services. The main goal of this initial study is to see how easy it is to recruit and enroll eligible participants, and how quickly they can be enrolled. The study is currently unclear about its status, but plans to enroll 90 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study comparing an enhanced intervention to usual care. It plans to enroll 90 participants.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary endpoints for recruitment feasibility are measured at the end of the study, one month after baseline.

  • Acceptability as measured by percentage of data lossend of study (1 month after baseline)
  • Acceptability as measured by score on the credibility/expectancy questionnaireend of study (1 month after baseline)

    The Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire (CEQ) was used to assess the acceptability of the intervention. All participants completed both subscales: the credibility subscale and the expectancy subscale. Each subscale total score ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater perceived acceptability. The expectancy subscale is reported.
