We collected data on socioeconomic characteristics and contraceptive use and determined the HIV status of those who accepted VCT. Using a nested case\u2013control design, we compared women who accepted HIV testing with women who did not. To study the association between socioeconomic factors, HIV testing acceptance and condom use in more detail, we did stratified analyses based on age and marital status.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2002<\/jats:bold> 58% of the women who had an unsafe abortion accepted HIV testing. Women who earned an income were more likely to accept testing than housewives. Women who accepted testing were more likely to accept using a condom. The HIV prevalence rate was 19% among single women aged 20\u201324\u2003years and 25% among single women aged 25\u201345\u2003years.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\u2002<\/jats:bold> HIV testing and condoms were accepted by most women who had an unsafe abortion. The poor reproductive health of these women could be improved by good post\u2010abortion care that includes contraceptive counselling, VCT and condom promotion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3156.2006.01607.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,4,25]],"date-time":"2006-04-25T17:08:31Z","timestamp":1145984911000},"page":"697-704","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Post\u2010abortion care and voluntary HIV counselling and testing \u2013 an example of integrating HIV prevention into reproductive health services"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Vibeke","family":"Rasch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fortunata","family":"Yambesi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siriel","family":"Massawe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","first-page":"660","article-title":"Demographic characteristics, socioeconomic profile and contraceptive behaviour in patients with abortion at Jimma Hospital, Ethiopia","volume":"73","author":"Abdella A","year":"1996","journal-title":"East African Medical Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1728-4465.2004.00019.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","first-page":"61","volume-title":"Postabortion Care, Lessons from Operational Research","author":"Diaz J","year":"1999"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1728-4465.2002.00195.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","first-page":"164","article-title":"Induced abortion in Kenya: its determinants and associated factors","volume":"73","author":"Lema VM","year":"1996","journal-title":"East African Medical Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1728-4465.2003.00067.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1728-4465.2004.00013.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0968-8080(93)90004-D"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/sti.77.4.255"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09540120120063232"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2105\/AJPH.90.7.1141"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0968-8080(00)90006-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0001-6349.2004.0529.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0277-9536(00)00299-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1728-4465.1999.00017.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","volume-title":"AIDS Epidemic Update: 2004","author":"UNAIDS","year":"2004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","volume-title":"Epidemiological Fact Sheets on HIV\/AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Infections. 2004 Update","author":"UNAIDS","year":"2004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_1","volume-title":"Millennium Development Goals","author":"UNDP","year":"2005"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_1","volume-title":"Unsafe Abortion.
