简要总结
Community Healthcare Workers (CHWs), who live in the communities they serve, have the potential to reach patients who poorly engage in their care. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a special type of interactional approach that focuses on improving the person's motivation to engage in healthy behaviors, such as keeping their clinic appointments and regularly taking medications. In this study, we will develop a mobile health tool that will assist CHWs in two tasks while they utilize MI to assist patients' engagement in care: 1) follow prompts on the mobile device to deliver MI; and 2) record consented conversations between CHWs and patients so that MI specialists can review the audiotape and provide feedback to maintain the MI skills.

结局指标
主要结局
CD4 count
时间窗: 9 months
Individual CD4 count, measured at baseline and endline, with 350 (cells/cubic ml) as binary low/high threshold
HIV viral load
时间窗: 9 months
Individual HIV viral load count, measured at baseline and endline, with viral load suppression or \>2 log drop in viral load as binary suppressed/not threshold
Self-reported HIV treatment adherence
时间窗: 9 months
Individual ART medication adherence over past month as measured by the self-reported HIV visual analogue scale (scale of 0-100%; minimum: 0%; maximum: 100%; higher scores correspond to a stronger outcome; patients asked to self-report what proportion of prescribed medications did the patient take over the past month).
次要结局
- Application error/crash percentage(9 months)
- Application access and completion percentage(9 months)
- Patient encounter duration(9 months)
