This study evaluated whether the PITC approach increased HIV testing amongst patients with a new episode of sexually transmitted infection as compared to standard voluntary counseling and testing VCT at the primary care level in South Africa a high prevalence and low resource setting. Methods The design was a pragmatic cluster-controlled trial with seven intervention and 14 control clinics in Cape Town. Nurses in intervention clinics integrated PITC into standard HIV care with few additional resources whilst lay counselors continued with the VCT approach in control clinics. Routine data were collected for a six-month period following the intervention in 2007 on new STI patients who were offered and who accepted HIV testing. The main outcome measure was the proportion of new STI patients tested for HIV with secondary outcomes being the proportions who were offered and who declined the HIV test. Results A significantly higher proportion of new STI patients in the intervention group tested for HIV as compared to the control group with intervention versus control p . This increase was achieved despite a significantly higher proportion intervention group declining testing when offered intervention versus control p . Patients were more likely to be offered HIV testing in intervention .
