Background: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) resulted in the disruption of Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) services in the Eastern and Southern Africa region. To date, studies estimating the impact of COVID-19 disruptions have mainly focused on SRHR services without estimating the economic implication.
Method: We used national service coverage data on the effectiveness of interventions from the lives saved tool (LiST), a mathematical modeling tool that estimates the effects of service coverage change in mortality.
Objectives: To characterize contraceptive counseling experiences among women living with HIV (WLWH) receiving HIV care in Kenya.
Study Design: Sexually active, WLWH aged 15 to 49 years were purposively sampled from 109 high-volume HIV Care and Treatment Centers in Kenya between June and September 2016. Cross-sectional surveys were administered to enroll women on a tablet using Open Data Kit.
Objectives: Integrating family planning (FP) into routine HIV care and treatment are recommended by WHO guidelines to improve FP access among HIV-infected individuals in sub-Saharan Africa. This study sought to assess factors that influence the delivery of integrated FP services and the impact of facility-level integration of FP on contraceptive uptake among women living with HIV (WLWH).
Study Design: A national cross-sectional study was conducted among WLWH at HIV Care and Treatment centers with >1000 antiretroviral treatment (ART) clients per year.
