We sought to identify factors associated with service awareness and service uptake of VCT among female heads of household in rural Zambézia Province of north-central Mozambique which is characterized by high HIV prevalence (12.6%), poverty, and suboptimal health service access and utilization.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>Our population-based survey of female heads of household was administered to a representative two-stage cluster sample using a sampling frame created for use on all national surveys and based on census results. The data served as a baseline measure for the <italic>Ogumaniha</italic> project initiated in 2009. Survey domains included poverty, health, education, income, HIV stigma, health service access, and empowerment. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were used to describe service awareness and service uptake of VCT.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Of 3708 women surveyed, 2546 (69%) were unaware of available VCT services. Among 1162 women who were aware of VCT, 673 (58%) reported no prior testing. In the VCT aware group, VCT awareness was associated with higher education (aOR = 2.88; 95% CI = 1.61, 5.16), higher income (aOR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.06, 1.86), higher numeracy (aOR = 1.05, CI 1.03, 1.08), more children < age 5 in the home (aOR = 1.53; 95% CI = 1.07, 2.18), closer proximity to a health facility (aOR = 1.05; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.07), and mobile phone ownership (aOR = 1.37; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.84) (all p-values < 0.04). Having a higher HIV-associated stigma score was the factor most strongly associated with being less likely to test. (aOR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.23, 0.71; p<0.001).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p>Most women were unaware of available VCT services. Even women who were aware of services were unlikely to have been tested. Expanded VCT and social marketing of VCT are needed in rural Mozambique with special attention to issues of community-level stigma reduction.</p></sec></div></front><back><div1

We sought to identify factors associated with service awareness and service uptake of VCT among female heads of household in rural Zambézia Province of north-central Mozambique which is characterized by high HIV prevalence (12.6%), poverty, and suboptimal health service access and utilization.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>Our population-based survey of female heads of household was administered to a representative two-stage cluster sample using a sampling frame created for use on all national surveys and based on census results. The data served as a baseline measure for the <italic>Ogumaniha</italic> project initiated in 2009. Survey domains included poverty, health, education, income, HIV stigma, health service access, and empowerment. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were used to describe service awareness and service uptake of VCT.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Of 3708 women surveyed, 2546 (69%) were unaware of available VCT services. Among 1162 women who were aware of VCT, 673 (58%) reported no prior testing. In the VCT aware group, VCT awareness was associated with higher education (aOR = 2.88; 95% CI = 1.61, 5.16), higher income (aOR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.06, 1.86), higher numeracy (aOR = 1.05, CI 1.03, 1.08), more children < age 5 in the home (aOR = 1.53; 95% CI = 1.07, 2.18), closer proximity to a health facility (aOR = 1.05; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.07), and mobile phone ownership (aOR = 1.37; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.84) (all p-values < 0.04). Having a higher HIV-associated stigma score was the factor most strongly associated with being less likely to test. (aOR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.23, 0.71; p<0.001).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p>Most women were unaware of available VCT services. Even women who were aware of services were unlikely to have been tested. Expanded VCT and social marketing of VCT are needed in rural Mozambique with special attention to issues of community-level stigma reduction.</p></sec></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><title>Keywords</title><kwd>HIV/AIDS</kwd><kwd>Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT)</kwd><kwd>Resource limited settings</kwd><kwd>Southern Africa</kwd><kwd>Mozambique</kwd><kwd>Rural</kwd><kwd>HIV awareness</kwd></kwd-group><custom-meta-group><custom-meta><meta-name>issue-copyright-statement</meta-name><meta-value>© The Author(s) 2015</meta-value></custom-meta></custom-meta-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="Sec1" sec-type="introduction"><title>Background</title><p>Despite global efforts to scale up human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention measures and voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) for HIV, testing coverage remains low in many sub-Saharan African countries, particularly in rural areas [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>].

This household selection approach was used following the failed attempt to use satellite imagery to list and randomly select households. Female interviewers conducted the survey with female heads-of-household, defined as the only or principal wife of the immediate family of the household.</p><p>The female head of household was chosen to be the respondent, as she is the most likely subject to be the most familiar with the health and care taking of the entire family.

age were more likely to be aware of VCT (aOR = 1.24; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.48). Having even more children was associated with an even heightened awareness of VCT (e.g., four vs. no children, aOR = 1.53; 95% CI = 1.07, 2.18). Women residing in a household where the income was $1.00 USD/day or higher had 41% higher odds of VCT awareness (aOR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.06, 1.86). We did not detect an association between women residing in households where electricity was available versus not, but mobile phone ownership was associated with increased awareness of VCT (aOR = 1.37; 95% CI = 1.03, 1.84). Additionally, a non-linear relationship of social exclusion stigma was noted with VCT awareness, such that persons having very low levels of social exclusion stigma or with moderate to high levels had the lowest odds of VCT awareness. Having a higher numeracy score was also significantly associated with having heightened awareness of VCT (aOR = 1.05, CI 1.03, 1.08); specifically, for every 1-point increase in numeracy score, one’s odds of VCT awareness were increased by 5%. As well-being scores increased on the QoL scale, women were increasingly more aware of VCT, (aOR = 1.06; 95% CI 1.00, 1.13); specifically, for each 1-point increase in QoL score, the odds of VCT awareness increased by 6%. Little association with VCT awareness was noted for the Negative Labeling and Devaluation Stigma Scale (p = 0.7).</p></sec><sec id="Sec9"><title>Aware but never tested in VCT vs. aware and ever tested in VCT</title><p>In the second model among women <italic>who were aware of VCT</italic> (n = 1,162), 58% (unweighted n = 673) remained untested in a VCT setting, while 42% (unweighted n = 489) had tested previously. Among these VCT-aware women, women with 2 children were most likely to have tested (aOR = 1.63; 95% CI = 1.12-2.36 vs. 0 children). Having children under the age of 5 was the only covariate significantly associated with both being aware of VCT as well as being aware and undergoing VCT. Among VCT-aware women, those with high stigma scores (≥ 80 points on the Negative Labeling and Devaluation Stigma Scale) were 59% less likely to be tested (aOR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.23, 0.71 [20 pts ref]; p<0.001) compared to those with lower stigma scores.</p></sec></sec><sec id="Sec10" sec-type="discussion"><title>Discussion</title><p>In this systematic, province-wide assessment of female respondents across Zambézia province, less than one-third of women were aware that VCT was locally available. Expanding this service awareness is a critical first step in the early identification of new HIV infections. Awareness of VCT was higher among those who were younger, resided in an urban area, and had greater socio-economic advantages (highly educated, primarily Portuguese speaking, relatively wealthy, and/or a mobile phone user). Awareness was also higher among participants residing in closer proximity to a health facility, reporting a higher quality of life, and having less stigmatizing attitudes. Being multiparous and caring for greater than or equal to 2 living children was highly associated with VCT awareness and uptake, suggesting that testing awareness might be increasing during and after pregnancy, presumably due to prevention of mother to child HIV transmission (PMTCT) services.</p><p>A successful strategy for VCT requires that testing is available, the public is aware of such services, and that a person is able to overcome potential barriers and attend the facility offering VCT [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">57</xref>]. While several prior studies investigated barriers to various forms of VCT access and factors related to the acceptance or refusal of these services in predominantly rural areas, our study looks further upstream and describes factors related to the actual awareness of the availability of these services (a necessary prerequisite to uptake) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR58">58</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR62">62</xref>]. Given Mozambique’s historically low national rate of VCT uptake (14% for women in 2009) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR63">63</xref>], compounded by Zambézia’s very high rates of illiteracy (50% among Portuguese speakers and 94% among non-Portuguese speakers) and their low numeracy levels (mean score corresponding to US kindergarten-level skills) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>], these findings suggest increased efforts are needed to expand basic awareness and knowledge related to VCT if service uptake is to be increased. Similar to our findings, a Tanzanian study found that only 45% of women in a rural cohort were aware of VCT services, a finding that was negatively associated with VCT uptake [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>]. While Zambézia Province could benefit from enhanced efforts to expand knowledge and availability of VCT, outreach must be tailored to a local language that women understand.</p><p>Most women in Zambézia reside in remote, rural communities with pronounced socio-economic disadvantages. When women become pregnant in Zambézia, they are offered opt-out HIV testing during antenatal care (i.e. provider initiated counseling and testing). As women have more children their awareness and utilization of VCT seemed to have increased, independent of a woman’s age. This is due perhaps to their pregnancy-related exposure to the health care system. Several investigators reported a positive association of increased exposure to the health care system and VCT uptake [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR63">63</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR65">65</xref>]. As of 2010, the majority of Zambézian women did routinely access health facilities antenatally; however, nearly 40% did not go to the facility during their last pregnancy missing opportunities to receive HIV testing in a PMTCT setting [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>]. In addition to scaling up antenatal services, we recommend integrating VCT services concurrently with postnatal care and childcare visits.</p><p>A very strong predictor of a woman being unaware of VCT was her stigmatizing view of PLWHA, supporting their social exclusion. Negative labeling and devaluation were predictors for being less likely to test. A refusal to test that is associated with higher stigma has been seen in other studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR64">64</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR66">66</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR69">69</xref>]. Campaigns designed to address and reduce stigma, if successful, may facilitate VCT uptake.</p><p>Strengths of our study include the representative reach of our survey, the access to remote rural areas typically neglected in research, the use of local languages to gather data, the comfort women had responding from the privacy of their homes, and the size of our sample in a remote, understudied setting. Limitations to our study include those familiar to a cross-sectional survey, including respondent reporting bias and the potential for miscommunication and misclassification of results due to variety of local languages and dialects in the province (though we interviewed in any of six languages). Household ownership of a mobile phone was ascertained via the respondent’s spouse’s possession of a mobile (not the respondent herself). We could not cross-reference VCT uptake self-reports against medical records. In addition, the VCT program in Mozambique changed its name in 2006–2007 to be less specific for HIV and to include a broader context of health issues in order to reduce stigma associated with testing for HIV; the survey referred to the old name and not the new one, though our interviewers do not believe that this affected responses.</p></sec><sec id="Sec11" sec-type="conclusion"><title>Conclusions</title><p>In summary, our survey of 3,708 female heads of household in rural Zambézia Province, Mozambique, found that a majority of women were unaware of VCT availability and most women who were aware of these services had not used them. Increased efforts are required to expand knowledge and the availability of VCT among women in this rural context; and ideally campaigns should be tailored to a woman’s specific sociolinguistic context. Rural community based testing and counseling via mobile brigades [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">59</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR70">70</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR75">75</xref>] and door-to-door campaigns [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR74">74</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR76">76</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR88">88</xref>] can be effective and could potentially impact Zambézia.</p><p>Another option may be incorporating such interventions into existing perinatal and post-natal healthcare visits where women are likely to attend for their child’s care. Finally, Provider-initiated counseling and testing (PICT) strategies should be promulgated far more aggressively to enable HIV-infected women to be identified and subsequently started earlier on ART.</p></sec></body><back><fn-group><fn><p><bold>Competing interest</bold></p><p>The authors declare that they have no competing interests.</p></fn><fn><p><bold>Authors’ contributions</bold></p><p>HNP conceived and designed the study, wrote, and edited the manuscript.
