Low rate of follow-up of raised HIV viral load results after screening for ART failure

Résumé fourni par la source

This study aims to retrospectively evaluate the follow up of raised HIV viral load (VL) results, in order to guide improved monitoring of patients. There are a number of operational challenges that limit the impact of VL screening. Issues identified in this analysis can be used to determine whether systems in place are adequate to support effective use of VL. The main limitation of this study was that tracing patients’ results and outcomes were challenging due to gaps in data quality.
