*CCU is defined as reporting always using condoms.
†Models were adjusted for variables that were significantly associated with the main outcome, CCU, on a p<0.10 significance level in univariate analysis and were found to be confounders of the association between CCU and PPT. For CCU with new or occasional clients and for the most recent repeat client, final models were adjusted for district, the number of condom demos seen in the past month and the duration since first contacted by intervention staff.
‡Adjusted prevalence ratios are presented with a 95% CI.
CCU, consistent condom use; FSW, female sex worker; PPT, periodic presumptive treatment.
