Screen2Prevent (S2P) is a study to make finding and stopping HIV better in emergency departments (EDs). It uses three different ways to offer HIV testing: targeted (testing specific people), universally offered opt-in (everyone can choose to test), and universally offered opt-out (everyone is tested unless they say no). The study is about 24 months long, with each method used for 8 months.
Participants aged 14-24 who visit the ED can take a computerized sexual health survey (cSHS) on a tablet. This survey helps decide if someone should get an HIV test and if they might need medicine to prevent HIV, called PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis). The survey is optional, so you can say no. Doctors might get alerts from the survey to help them decide about testing and PrEP.
- Study lasts for 24 months with three 8-month phases.
- Participants can use a tablet for a health survey, but it's optional.
- No risks mentioned, and no specific medical treatment is provided.
