RESUMO

PURPOSE: We sought to elicit perspectives on HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention among adolescents with recent STIs in primary care to optimize acceptability and effectiveness in designing a novel HIV/STI prevention intervention. METHODS: We enrolled 13-19 year-olds with recent gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, and/or syphilis in a multimethods cross-sectional study at two primary care clinics. Participants completed surveys and interviews. We used an integrated analytic approach deductively coding data using the Integrated Behavioral Model, then inductively coding to identify themes not represented in the Integrated Behavioral Model. RESULTS: Participants (n = 35) were 85% cisgender female, 14% cisgender male, 1% transgender female; 25% identified as lesbian, bisexual, or queer. Most (97%) identified as non-Latinx Black. None used condoms consistently, 26% were aware of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and 31% were never HIV tested. Five key themes emerged. 1) Mental health was central to HIV prevention behavior uptake and coping with STI diagnosis. 2) Youth desired prevention counseling that allowed decisional autonomy and individualized goal setting. 3) Negative social norms around condoms and absent norms around HIV testing and PrEP limited method uptake. 4) Both confidence and concrete skills were needed to initiate prevention methods. 5) Youth desired education at the time of STI diagnosis to improve subsequent prevention decision making. DISCUSSION: Key intervention design considerations included 1) integrating mental health assessment and referral to services, 2) promoting individualized goal setting, 4) building communication skills, 4) providing navigation and material support for PrEP uptake and HIV testing, and 5) augmenting comprehensive STI and HIV prevention education.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Data regarding the acceptability, feasibility, and quality of telehealth among adolescents and young adults (AYA) and their parents and caregivers (caregivers) are lacking. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the noninferiority of telehealth versus in-person visits by comparing acceptability with respect to efficiency, effectiveness, equity, patient-centeredness, and confidentiality. METHODS: Cross-sectional web-based surveys were sent to caregivers and AYA following video visits within an Adolescent Medicine subspecialty clinic in May-July 2020. Proportions of AYA and caregivers who rated telehealth as noninferior were compared using chi-squared tests. Feasibility was assessed via items measuring technical difficulties. Deductive thematic analysis using the Institute of Medicine dimensions of health care quality was used to code open-ended question responses. RESULTS: Survey response rates were 20.5% (55/268) for AYA and 21.8% (123/563) for caregivers. The majority of the respondents were White cisgender females. Most AYA and caregivers rated telehealth as noninferior to in-person visits with respect to confidentiality, communication, medication management, and mental health care. A higher proportion of AYA compared to caregivers found telehealth inferior with respect to confidentiality (11/51, 22% vs 3/118, 2.5%, P<.001). One-quarter (14/55) of the AYA patients and 31.7% (39/123) of the caregivers reported technical difficulties. The dominant themes in the qualitative data included advantages of telehealth for efficiency and equity of health care delivery. However, respondents' concerns included reduced safety and effectiveness of care, particularly for patients with eating disorders, owing to lack of hands-on examinations, collection of vital signs, and laboratory testing. CONCLUSIONS: Telehealth was highly acceptable among AYA and caregivers. Future optimization should include improving privacy, ameliorating technical difficulties, and standardizing at-home methods of obtaining patient data to assure patient safety.
