| Core Tip |
The study aimed to assess the impact of onsite and online health education on the awareness and adoption of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) among PEP service users at a Beijing STD/AIDS clinic. Between January and June 2022, 112 participants were enrolled, with 105 completing the study. Education efforts led to a significant increase in the knowledge of and willingness to use PrEP and PEP, with adequate understanding of PrEP rising from 65.2% to 83.8%, and PEP from 74.1% to 92.4%. The study concluded that both education methods effectively improved PrEP and PEP uptake in high-risk individuals. |
