Brief Answer:
Chances are possible but minimal. Get tested for STDs as baseline

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query. Welcome to health care magic.
I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
I have gone through the details and can make out your anxiety.

The chances of transmission of HIV by single unprotected intercourse with a HIV positive person is very low.As there was condom failure for very minimal time, the chances are low.
She is negative for HIV .So the chances is nil.
There are minor possibilities of transmission of other STDs , as she is likely free of other STDs.
But it is better to get STDs panel test as a baseline as you had multiple partners.

You can get back for any clarification.
