简要总结
The SEARCH study aims to test evidenced-based innovative community based interventions that lead to the elimination of HIV in rural communities in East Africa using a multi-disease approach. The first phase of the study will quantify the impact of early HIV diagnosis using a streamlined and immediate ART (antiretroviral therapy). The second phase of the study, will quantify the impact of targeted Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) in the context of universal treatment and streamlined care. The study intervention is designed to improve the entire continuum of care, to reduce structural barriers for all populations including those most "at risk".

- •Accessibility to health center via a maintained transportation route.
- •Community location with sufficient distance from other potential study communities to limit contamination of intervention or control conditions (buffer zone)
- •Individual Level Inclusion Criteria:
- •Residency of individual in community, defined as present in household for at least 6 months of the calendar year.

结局指标
主要结局
HIV Incidence
时间窗: 3 years follow up
HIV incidence rate in men and women ages ≥15 years after the start of Phase II intervention (started after 3 years of Phase I).
Cumulative HIV Incidence
时间窗: 3 years follow up
Cumulative 3 year HIV incidence in men and women ages ≥15 years after the start of Phase I intervention. Mean was calculated as the average across clusters of the cluster-level cumulative incidence.
