Outcomes
syphilis, HCV infections, gonorrhoea, chlamydia
STIS, SYPHILIS, GONORRHOEA, SECONDARY
The primary outcome was the proportion of participants who tested for HCV at either a clinic or via self-test during the study period. This was assessed in all participants using photo verification. Secondary outcomes included adverse outcomes related to HCV self-testing, the number of newly identified HCV infections during the trial, the linkage to HCV clinical care after self-testing, and the proportion of tests for HIV and other STIs (syphilis, gonorrhoea, and chlamydia) during the trial. The secondary outcomes were assessed based on self-reported data from a follow-up survey. We also reported the economic cost of a person tested for HCV in all study arms.
