Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluation of a Persuasive Health Communication Intervention Designed to Increase HIV/HCV Screening Among Emergency Departments Patients Who Currently, Formerly or Never Injected Drugs.
A major impediment to emergency department (ED)-based HIV/HCV screening success is that often ED patients at risk for, or later diagnosed with, HIV and HCV decline testing. In this R01 project, the research team will assess how well a promising, easy-to-use, one-time, minimal-training-needed, very brief persuasive health communication intervention (PHCI) increases acceptance of testing among adult ED patients who either currently, formerly or never injected drugs and initially declined HIV/HCV screening. The research team will conduct a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) at two EDs within the Mount Sinai Health System to compare the efficacy of the PHCI when delivered by a video vs. an HIV/HCV counselor. Patients who initially declined HIV/HCV screening will be stratified by injection-drug use (IDU) history cohorts: (1) current/former PWIDs, (2) never/non-PWIDs. Within each IDU history cohort, the research team will randomly assign participants (1:1) to a PHCI delivered by: (1) a video, or (2) an HIV/HCV counselor. This R01 project will be conducted at The Mount Sinai Hospital and Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital EDs. For Aim 1, the research team will determine which delivery form of the PHCI (video or HIV/HCV counselor) results in more ED patients accepting HIV/HCV screening, independent of their history of IDU. For Aim 2, the research team will determine if screening acceptance is similar across IDU history cohorts. For Aim 3, the research team will further compare the two delivery forms of the PHCI through a health economics assessment, both independent of IDU history and within each IDU history cohort.
As part of routine practice at The Mount Sinai Hospital and Mount Sinai Beth Israel Emergency Departments, the ED Nurses initiate HIV/HCV screening for all patients able to provide consent. ED patients eligible for recruitment into the RCT portion of the study are those who declined HIV/HCV screening. RCs will review the EHRs of patients present in the ED during data collection periods and determine which patients are potentially eligible. Participation in the RCT involves a one-time encounter. All research-related activities will occur in the ED. As such, drop-out during this brief RCT (<30 minutes from recruitment through final study questionnaires) is expected to be minimal (<5%). RCs will coordinate with participants and ED staff to facilitate participant involvement while they are receiving medical care. If necessary, participants can continue participating in designated areas of the ED (e.g., waiting room, family room) after they are discharged and there are study-related tasks remaining. There are no research related follow-ups needed. The research team will enroll a total of 2,000 adult ED patients who meet all study criteria and agree to participate in the RCT, stratified by IDU history. Assuming 0.6 participants completing the study/hour (1 study completion/75 minutes of recruitment, enrollment, and data collection), the research team could recruit up to ≈5,184 participants (720 collection days x 12 hours/data collection/day x 0.6 participants/hour) over 3 years. The research team will be collecting data using the QDS™ (NOVA Research Company) program installed on a tablet computer. The program has the ability to encrypt collected data, to which only the researcher has ability to de-crypt data sets (NOVA Research cannot recover lost passwords for the researcher). The program also has a data management system, allowing data export for use in analytical packages like SPSS, Stata. Internet access is not necessary for this program to function. The data can be stored on the tablet computer for the meantime, then synced once internet is available. ;
