Biomedical technologies in context
Novel point-of-care tools tailored to contextual needs are critical for improving sexually transmitted infection (STI) management. The genital inflammation test (GIFT) is a point-of-care test under development to detect genital inflammation. A potential use of GIFT is as a screening tool to identify asymptomatic women who may have a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or bacterial vaginosis (BV), followed by confirmatory STI- testing if GIFT-pos…
Integrating point-of-care screening for curable sexually transmitted infections with HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B screening in antenatal care services in Zimbabwe
Introduction Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in pregnancy are associated with adverse birth outcomes. We investigated the uptake and yield of point-of-care screening for Chlamydia trachomatis , Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Trichomonas vaginalis , integrated with HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening in antenatal care (ANC) in Zimbabwe, and conducted a mixed-methods process evaluation of the strategy. Methods A prospective interv…
Integrated health checks as a person-centred approach to systematic screening of household tuberculosis contacts
Globally, tuberculosis incidence and mortality is driven by syndemic interactions of tuberculosis with other chronic conditions including HIV, diabetes and undernutrition in a deleterious social and structural context, often characterised by poverty. Systematic screening for tuberculosis among household contacts is a core element of the WHO tuberculosis strategy but is hampered in high-tuberculosis incidence settings by health system constraints …
How and why do young people engage in STI screening, treatment, and partner notification? A qualitative positive deviance study in Zimbabwe
Young people have a high burden of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) but low uptake of and high attrition from services. We adopted a positive deviance approach to explore uptake of STI screening, treatment, and partner notification within a sexual and reproductive health service. We conducted in-depth interviews with young people (aged 16-24 years) who accepted screening, treatment, and partner notification slips ( n = 15), and healthcare p…
