The project focuses on using digital adherence technologies to improve completion rates of tuberculosis preventive therapy among people living with HIV by conducting pilot trials to assess effectiveness and feasibility.
Description
This project aims to explore how two low-cost digital adherence technologies (DATs) can be adapted to address barriers to the completion of short-course tuberculosis preventive therapy (3HP) among people living with HIV (PLHIV). The study will conduct pilot trials to evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of these DATs, with the goal of supporting scale-up of TB prevention regimens.
