Summary

This trial explores PrEP uptake and belief in a novel sexual subculture by testing the impact of an entertainment-education intervention.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who are involved in kink activities, weigh at least 35 kg, don't know or have a negative HIV status, and haven't used PrEP before. They must understand English well enough to comprehend study materials and give informed consent. People under 18, those with positive HIV status or serious side effects from previous PrEP use, renal failure patients, pregnant individuals, current PrEP users, or participants in other PrEP trials cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how different educational materials (generic vs. kink-focused videos) affect the uptake of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) among BDSM-involved individuals over a year. It aims to make the information relatable to this group and see if it changes their health beliefs about using PrEP to prevent HIV.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves informational/educational videos rather than medication or medical procedures directly administered by researchers, there are no direct physical side effects associated with participating in this clinical trial.
