- W2625805210 abstract "Female sex workers (FSW) represent a vulnerable group at high risk of HIV infection, and sexwork is an important driver of HIV transmission in the general population. Therefore,interventions that prevent HIV infection in FSW will not only protect vulnerable women, butcould also reduce HIV transmission at a population level. The study aimed at determining theknowledge, attitude and practice of post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) following unprotectedsexual exposure among female sex workers. The study was carried out at Majengo slums, a sexworkers clinic in Nairobi. A total of 344 female sex workers attending Majengo STI clinic wereinterviewed. The mean age of the respondents was 33.2 ± 6.3years. The proportion of womenwith adequate knowledge on post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) was 76.5% (95% CI [72.0% –81.0%]). Adjusting for other factors, adequate knowledge on PEP was significantly associatedwith ever using PEP (aOR=8.45; 95% CI [4.72-15.13] p<0.001).The proportion of women with appropriate attitude towards PEP was 62.5% (95% CI [57.4% –67.6%]). Knowledge of PEP was negatively significantly associated with anal sex wassignificantly (aOR=0.19; 95% CI: 0.07 – 51; p=0.001). A respondent engaging in anal sex was5.3 times less likely to have adequate knowledge on PEP compared to one not engaging. Sideeffects (82.9%) were mentioned as the main reason for not completing the treatment. Engagingin unprotected sex when given some incentives was significantly associated with use of PEP(aOR=8.21; 95% CI: 3.83 – 17.62; p<0.001). A respondent engaging in unprotected sex whengiven some incentives was 8.21 times more likely to use PEP. The proportion of women whoever used PEP was 65.7% (95% CI: 62.6% – 72.5%). Adjusting for other factors, use of PEPwas significantly associated with adequate knowledge on PEP (aOR=9.19; 95% CI, 4.66 –18.10; p<0.001).Most of the respondents had adequate knowledge and positive attitude towards use of PEP andmost had used it at time of study." @default.
