Addressing Reproductive Coercion in HEalth Settings

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary purpose of this research is to conduct a small matched cluster control trial of an intervention designed to address reproductive coercion and unintended pregnancy (ARCHES - Addressing Reproductive Coercion within Healthcare Settings) adapted to the Kenyan cultural and family planning healthcare context (ARCHES Kenya) so as to provide initial data regarding acceptability, feasibility and efficacy in this high-need LMIC context.

Clinical Trial Description

The project consortium will implement the ARCHES Kenya model across 6 Family Health Options Kenya clinics in Nairobi, Kenya. A matched-pair cluster control design including 600 female family planning (FP) clients ages 15-49 years (inclusive of 360 clients age 15-24 years) will be utilized to evaluate this intervention. Baseline data will be collected prior to routine FP service delivery, with a short exit survey conducted immediately following the clients' FP appointment (ARCHES or standard FP counseling will be provided during this visit). Follow-up data will be collected at 3 and 6-months post-intervention. Qualitative data will be collected from intervention providers (n=12) regarding implementation via weekly technical assistance sessions during the first three months, and then monthly, regarding acceptability and feasibility of integrating ARCHES into routine FP counseling, including barriers and facilitators to implementation, and any issues with maintaining fidelity to the ARCHES model. Structured interviews with select providers (n=12) will also be conducted at 3-months post-training to delve further into these issues. Structured interviews with intervention participants reporting experience of RC in the past 3 months on the baseline survey (20 participants ages 15-24, 15 ages 25-49; total n=35) will be conducted at 3-months follow-up to assess their experience of the intervention; perceived utility of the messages, care and materials; barriers to utilizing messaging and materials; and suggestions for improvement. Analyses specific to participants ages 15-24 will provide findings to guide consideration of ARCHES as an effective strategy to improve reproductive health and reduce GBV among adolescents in the region. The project consortium will engage Government of Kenya officials, IPPF executive directors and IPPF member associations across the federation to pave the way for the future roll out of this approach in other low and middle-income country (LMIC) contexts. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
