Key Points

The research aims to develop strategies for integrating hypertension and HIV care using the Behavior Change Wheel as a framework.
Utilized the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW) to design implementation strategies.
Focused on urban primary care clinics in South Africa.
Planned a type 2 hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial to test these strategies.
Strategies designed using the BCW showed promise for enhancing patient care integration.
The implementation trial aims to measure both clinical and broader implementation outcomes.

Implication

Demonstrates strategies for integrating hypertension and HIV care in urban clinics, suggesting enhancements in patient outcomes.

Abstract

This study demonstrates the utility of the BCW to guide community-informed implementation strategy design. The resulting implementation strategies will be tested in a type 2 hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial to determine their impact on clinical and implementation outcomes.
