Abstract

Abstract: Despite the efficacy of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), utilization remains suboptimal with only about 25% to 30% of eligible individuals prescribed PrEP in 2021. Providers are pivotal in addressing multifaceted barriers to PrEP access. Financial barriers, HIV stigma, and limited knowledge hinder PrEP prescribing. Providers must understand PrEP guidelines, address stigma, and conduct structured sexual health screenings. Proactive measures including education initiatives and policy advocacy are vital. By fostering open communication and promoting inclusivity, providers can significantly enhance PrEP access, contributing to HIV prevention efforts and improved public health outcomes.

促进增加PrEP处方：初级保健提供者的作用。

摘要/ Abstract摘要：尽管HIV暴露前预防（PrEP）有效，但使用率仍然不理想，2021年只有约25%至30%的符合条件的个体使用PrEP。提供者在解决PrEP获取的多方面障碍方面发挥着关键作用。经济障碍、艾滋病毒污名和有限的知识阻碍了PrEP处方。提供者必须了解PrEP指南，解决污名，并进行有组织的性健康筛查。包括教育倡议和政策宣传在内的积极措施至关重要。通过促进公开沟通和促进包容性，提供者可以大大增加获得预防措施的机会，促进艾滋病毒预防工作和改善公共卫生成果。
