Two studies evaluated comprehensive care for people living with HIV in the UK; in both cases, quality and uptake of STI services seemed to improve following integration. The third study conducted a comparative case study across different models of care in Swaziland: two clinics integrated with sexual and reproductive health services (including STI services), and two stand-alone HIV clinics (without STI services). Coverage for Pap smears among women living with HIV was higher at the fully integrated site, but there was no significant difference in the prevalence of sexual health screening or advice on sexual health. Reported client satisfaction was generally higher at the stand-alone HIV clinic, and a diverse range of factors related to implementation of different care models challenged the notion that integrated services are always superior or desired.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While there is a limited evidence base for integrating STI services into HIV care and treatment services, existing studies indicate that integration is feasible and has the potential for positive outcomes. However, diverse population needs and health system factors must be considered when designing models of care to provide STI services to women living with HIV.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2016-015310","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,21]],"date-time":"2017-06-21T20:10:16Z","timestamp":1498075816000},"page":"e015310","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Integration of sexually transmitted infection (STI) services into HIV care and treatment services for women living with HIV: a systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Caitlin E","family":"Kennedy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of International Health and Epidemiology, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sabina A","family":"Haberlen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of International Health and Epidemiology, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manjulaa","family":"Narasimhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Reproductive Health and Research, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025120520511929000_7.6.e015310.1","unstructured":"United Nations General Assembly.
