Trial Outcomes & Findings for Package of Resources for Assisted Contact Tracing: Implementation, Costs, and Effectiveness (NCT NCT05343390)
NCT ID: NCT05343390
Last Updated: 2025-02-06
Results Overview
Health care workers will be observed counseling actual index clients. The scores on the 15-item index client fidelity assessment will be compared between arms (range 0-100% with higher scores being better)

Participant Flow
33 clusters were randomized in a 1:2 ratio (Enhanced:Standard). Within these clusters Healthcare workers, Index clients, Contact clients and data from registers were observed. To clearly represent the groups within each arm, four "periods" are shown below. Periods do not reflect a time element, but rather the four populations measured within these clusters (units).

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: 1 year after trainingPopulation: Calculations were driven from the 'Clusters and Register-Extracted Data' population. The full range of incremental cost was derived based on variability in cost associated with implementation strategy development. Number of participants analyzed in the Standard Arm is Zero due to this outcome being an incremental measure; no additional clients were tested in the Standard Arm.
Incremental cost per contact tested for HIV = Total additional cost in enhanced arm ($127,319) / total number of additional individual tested for HIV in the enhanced arm (1119). The outcome is an incremental cost effectiveness ratio. Because no additional cost was incurred in the Standard arm, the value was reported as 0.
