Descrição: HIV partner notification services (HIV PS) have been poorly implemented in most low- and middle-income countries, including China. Understanding the social context of partner services for key populations is important for scaling up HIV testing services. This study aims to examine facilitators and barriers of HIV PS using qualitative analysis. This article qualitatively analyzed the texts obtained from a crowdsourcing open call and adopted the socioecological framework to understand the social context of Chinese men who have sex with men (MSM) living with HIV that influenced their uptake of HIV partner services. Crowdsourcing means collecting ideas from and sharing solutions with the public. The open call was held to solicit ideas to enhance HIV partner services for Chinese MSM. Two coders conducted a content analysis of the texts from the submissions using inductive and deductive coding methods to identify facilitators and barriers of HIV PS. Textual data from 53 submissions were analyzed. The most mentioned barrier, stigma associated with HIV PS, was deeply embedded at several levels, highlighting the urgent need for stigma reduction. Among the facilitators, many people mentioned anonymous online notification could protect the privacy and avoid social harm for index partners. Differentiated partner services may improve HIV PS uptake by providing tailored intervention according to the individual circumstances. Some people suggested implicit notification, which meant testing the attitude of the partner before direct disclosure. This was feasible and acceptable in many settings. The unique social context of MSM living with HIV provides opportunities for embedding HIV partner services. More clinical trials that test the acceptability and effectiveness of the HIV PS interventions are needed.
