Background
HIV and intimate partner violence (IPV) are intertwined epidemics in many parts of the world
Violence is a risk factor for HIV In Uganda, where HIV prevalence is 6.5%
(UNAIDS, 2010), 48% of women and 20% of men report IPV, ever (DHS, 2006)

Objectives
Understand the prevalence of the experience of IPV among both women and men in an outpatient population in rural Uganda
Explore the mechanisms by which IPV may increase risk for HIV infection Lack of access to testing Increased risk from unprotected sex

Setting Outpatient clinic in a 100 bed comprehensive
public hospital in rural Butambala District, Uganda
Hospital serves a population > 300,000 Provider-initiated routine HIV-counseling and
testing (PITC) offered to all outpatients regardless of presenting symptoms
Free care and antiretroviral treatment

Procedures and MeasuresProcedures Interviewed before receiving provider-initiated HIV-
counseling and testing
Measures prior HIV testing perceived likelihood of testing HIV positive history of physical (e.g., hitting, slapping) and sexual
(forced sex) violence and emotional abuse (belittling, threats of violence) with current partner
sexual risk behavior

Participants
160 (82 female, 78 male) outpatients receiving provider-initiated routine HIV-counseling and testing
87% married age M=34.0 (range 20-59)

Emotional Abuse: Perceived % chance they would test HIV positive

IPV: Tested for HIV in prior year

IPV: Percent who tested HIV-positive

IPV: Number of unprotected sex acts in prior 3 months
Difference: Women: OR 1.06, CI (1.04-1.09) , Men: OR 1.13, CI (1.02-1.24)

Summary IPV is prevalent in this community
Women and men who experienced IPV were more likely to: Think they would test HIV positive Test HIV positive Engage in more unprotected sex
No difference in prior access to HIV testing
![Page 14: Susan M. Kiene, PhD Rhoda Wanyenze, Moses Bateganya, Haruna Lule ,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816143550346895dd0b7cc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Conclusions
The effect of IPV on increasing HIV risk is likely explained by the risk posed from unprotected sex not from lack of access to HIV testing
Interventions are needed to reduce the risk from unprotected sex among both women and men who experience IPV
