Tanzania and South Africa
• Developed and field tested a needs assessment tool in Mwanza, Tanzania, in 2007.
• Our CHAMPION Project in Tanzania is currently conducting a national survey to help assess men’s attitudes, beliefs, and practices regarding HIV prevention and gender, including MC.
• Incorporates MC messages in Men as Partners (MAP) activities for PEPFAR supported HIV prevention services.

Challenges in MC Service Delivery
• Limitations of task shifting vs. full time dedicated MC staff.
• A number of health providers lack motivation.
• Initially low uptake of HIV testing at time of MC.
• Unreliable supply of consumables.
• Lack of specific instruments needed, instruments of poor quality or insufficient numbers for high volume.
• Lack of support from some traditional leaders in non-circumcising communities.

Male Circumcision Consortium Project
• EngenderHealth is responsible for leading the following 3 research studies:
– Assessing the human resource capacity and training needs to support MC roll-out.
– Assessing the safety, efficacy, and cost of non-physician clinicians providing MC services.
– Assessing the safety, efficacy, and cost of MC outreach services.

The Shang Ring for MC
• Developed & commercially available in China.
• A published study and other data suggest good safety profile.
• Benefits of the Shang Ring:– Simple design; easy to use, learn & teach– Short procedure time ( 3-10 minutes)– Minimal bleeding– Tight seal along wound– Sutureless closure; excellent cosmetic results– Design decreases risk of serious surgical errors

The Shang Ring MC Device
![Page 14: EngenderHealth’s Work on Male Circumcision Paul Perchal, MA, Director, HIV/STI Program Mark Barone, DVM, MS, Senior Medical Associate PEPFAR Male Circumcision](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062807/5697bff51a28abf838cbd88f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Shang Ring Pilot Study
• We will examine clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction in a small sample of Kenyan men in order to assess:– Safety– Efficacy (in terms of successful circumcision)– Acceptability/satisfaction
• The pilot will also lay the groundwork for a larger RCT.
• Prospective, non-comparative study at one health facility.
• 40-50 men seeking MC will be enrolled, undergo MC with the Shang Ring and be followed for 6 weeks.
