Popis: Person-centred care (PCC) for people living with HIV (PLWH) is a global goal for WHO and the UNAIDS strategy. We aimed to develop a novel person-centred intervention for community providers, test the feasibility of participant recruitment and retention, intervention delivery and to establish acceptability. Findings from qualitative interviews with PLWH and healthcare professionals were mapped onto a PCC theory in an expert intervention development workshop. A parallel feasibility cluster randomised controlled trial (cRCT) was conducted. We randomly assigned clusters (1:1) either to intervention or to standard care. The primary outcome was trial recruitment and retention. We screened 83 PLWH, enrolled 60 with 30 allocated to each arm. Recruitment and retention rates were 87% and 97%, respectively. Potential effect size achieved at final timepoint: a measure of person-centred outcomes [0.7 (95% CI 0.17-1.23)
