Resulting from treatment advances, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is now a long-term condition, and digital solutions are being developed to support people living with HIV in self-management. Sharing their health data peers may self-management, but trust, identity, privacy security (TIPS) considerations of remain underexplored. Working peer researcher who expert lived experience HIV, we interviewed 26 United Kingdom (UK) investigate how design sharing platform. We also conducted...
Cabotegravir and rilpivirine (CAB+RPV long-acting (LA)) is recommended as a treatment for HIV-1 allowing people living with HIV to receive 2 monthly injectable treatment, rather than daily pills. Providing therapy in system designed provide manage study participants on oral treatments poses logistical challenges namely how resources are used accommodate patient preference within constrained health economies capacity limitations. In this pragmatic multicentre study, we aim understand the...

Infant-feeding decisions often involve personal and social networks. Currently, little research addresses how individuals in high-income countries navigate infant-feeding the father their children.

Abstract Introduction The equity-focused ILANA study evaluated feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness of delivering on-label two-monthly cabotegravir and rilpivirine (CAB+RPV) injections for HIV-1 therapy in clinics community settings. Methods study, which mandated inclusive recruitment, was conducted May-December 2022 at six UK sites. Injections were delivered clinic (months 1-6), or setting according to patient choice 6-12).

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that women with HIV breastfeed for a minimum of one year. In contrast, across high-income countries, and infant-feeding guidelines recommend exclusive formula feeding if parents want to avoid all risk postpartum transmission. However, recently these (including in the United Kingdom (UK)) increasingly state individuals should be supported breast/chest feed they meet certain criteria; such as an undetectable maternal viral load consent additional...
HIV transmission risk via breastfeeding is greatly reduced by antiretroviral therapy but not zero. Current UK guidelines recommend exclusive formula feeding; however, women can breastfeed if they meet certain criteria. We examine the narrative accounts of mothers with (pregnant or recently given birth) who navigated divergent cultural and national policy norms regarding infant feeding. Mothers HIV, majority whom in are Black African ethnicity, face a complex decision feeding, which has...

<h3>Background</h3> Understanding data-sharing in HIV care is timely given the shift to remote consultations during COVID-19. We describe 'data-sharing ecosystem' by analysing healthcare professional (HCP) beliefs and practices around sharing diverse types of service user clinic-generated data across multiple contexts. <h3>Methods</h3> During February-October 2020, we conducted 14 semi-structured interviews with HCPs working a large UK outpatient service. Participants engaged card sorting...
