EFFICACY OF A RANDOMIZED INTERVENTION TRIAL PROMOTING FEMALE CONDOM USE AMONG FEMALE SOUTH AFRICAN TERTIARY STUDENTS Jenni Smit, Susie Hoffman, Zonke Mabude, Mags Beksinska, Zena Stein, Claudia Ngoloyi, Elizabeth A.

OBJECTIVE AND METHODS We compared the efficacy of an enhanced 2-session cognitive-behavioral intervention against a one-session ‘basic’ intervention to promote FC use among women students at a South African tertiary institution 1 session intervention: HIV/STI transmission & safer sex, HIV & pregnancy vulnerability, addressing risks and problems encountered, FC insertion/removal/disposal demonstration, FC/MC comparison 2-session intervention: same as 1 session + skills-building re: partner negotiation overcoming resistance to condom use, practice in using FCs, and a focus on goal setting 296 women students, reporting unprotected sex in last 2 months, enrolled and randomly assigned to the 2-session (n=147) or 1-session (n=149) intervention. Baseline, and post-intervention follow-up assessments at 2.5 & 5 months We evaluated if there were differences between the 1- and 2-session groups in change from baseline to follow-up in regard to # of unprotected sex acts and # of FCs used.

MAIN FINDINGS One-SessionTwo-Session Intervention Effect Primary Outcome: number of unprotected vaginal sex acts MeanRRp MeanRRp Intervention Effectp B-L13.64NA B-L9.02NA FU <.01FU < FU <.0001FU < Preliminary findings suggest both interventions decreased unprotected sex (and increased the number of FCs used – see poster), but no differences found between the 2 groups in the amount of change from baseline to either FU1 or FU2. The shorter, single-session group-based intervention, which could be delivered in a clinic waiting room, holds promise in resource-constrained settings. Further analyses underway to understand the “no differences” between intervention conditions.
