Factors influencing neonatal male circumcision uptake among expecting couples in Zambia : formative findings
Male circumcision is a protective HIV prevention strategy. However, uncircumcised Zambian men are reluctant to undergo voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC). Tailored interventions are necessary to stimulate the uptake of early infant male circumcision (EIMC) and VMMC in Zambia. This feasibility study presents the formative process of utilising the PRECEDE framework in the development of a family-centred EIMC/VMMC intervention, Like Father Like Son, and its application in an existing VMMC intervention, Spear & Shield. We found that fear of the pain associated with EIMC procedures, foreskin disposal, beliefs in children's autonomy and rights, and men's dominance in health decision-making were factors affecting EIMC uptake. Perceived benefits for infants included improved hygiene, protection from HIV infection, and faster recovery. Reinforcing factors included female partners and fathers' MC status. The availability and access to EIMC services and information, skill and experience of health workers, and engagement and belief in traditional circumcision practices were factors enabling EIMC uptake. These individual, interpersonal, and structural factors positively and negatively influencing EIMC uptake in the Zambian clinic context were integrated into the intervention for expecting parents. Feedback from community advisory boards suggested the process was effective in developing a culturally tailored and acceptable EIMC/VMMC promotion intervention.
