Proposed Project Nurse Delivered Risk Reduction Intervention for HIV-Positive Women— New—National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description During the past two decades, HIV surveillance data indicate an increase in HIV/AIDS cases among women in the non-urban Southeastern United States. In 2006, the majority of HIV/AIDS cases (80%) among women were attributed to high-risk heterosexual contact with an infected partner. Women of color, particularly Black women, are intervention, elicit recommendations for developing risk reduction intervention strategies, and to better understand the factors that place women at risk for HIV. CDC is requesting approval for a 2year clearance for data collection. This project will collect data from HIV positive women using a screening form to determine eligibility for participation in the study, a locator form to collect contact information from participants and a baseline and follow-up behavioral assessment that will be administered to 330 HIV positive women. The baseline and follow-up assessments contain questions about participants’ sociodemographic information, health and health care, sexual activity, substance use, and other psychosocial issues. The duration of each assessment is estimated to be 45 minutes; the in-depth interview 60 minutes; the screening form 10 minutes; and the locator form 3 minutes. There is no cost to the participants other than their time. disproportionately affected by HIV/ AIDS which also serves as a leading cause of death for Black women. Factors shown to be associated with HIV in the South include poverty, lack of access to medical care, poor education, lack of awareness of the disease, and exposure to other sexually transmitted diseases. Presently, there is an urgent need for enhanced HIV transmission prevention interventions for HIV positive women in the southeastern United States. The purpose of this project is to adapt and test the efficacy of an HIV transmission prevention intervention for reducing sexual risk among 330 HIV positive women in the Southeastern United States, and to study factors associated with risk among women. A brief, nurse delivered, single session intervention will be evaluated using a randomized wait-list comparison design with a three-month follow-up assessment. This project will also conduct in-depth qualitative interviews with a subgroup of 25–30 women, in order to assess experiences with the ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Type of form Number of responses per respondent Average burden per response (in hours) Total burden (in hours) Screening Form ...............................................................................................
