↑ART coverage from 2002-2009 UNAIDS Report on the Global AIDS Epidemic 2010

GLOBAL NUMBER OF ADULTS ≥15 YEARS ELIGIBLE FOR ART IN LMICs, 1990-2009 Stanecki K et al. Sex Transm Infect. 2010;86:ii62-ii66

NUMBER OF ART ELIGIBLE ADULTS ≥15 YEARS IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA BY COUNTRY, 2009 Stanecki K et al. Sex Transm Infect. 2010;86:ii62-ii66

But herein lies the challenge… 23,430 tested for HIV (2 public HIV care systems in central Mozambique) 7,005 tested HIV positive (30%) 3,049 (43%) not enrolled in HIV care 3,956 enrolled in HIV care <30 days after test (57%) 910 (23%) no CD4 test drawn 3,046 CD4 test <30 days after enrollment (77%) 1,506 eligible for ART Initiation (49%) 1,035 (69%) did not initiate ART 471 initiated ART <90 days after CD4 test (31%) 65 (14%) LTFU after ART 317 adherent to ART for 6 months (83%) Micek MA et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2009;52(3):397-405

And not just in lmics…(a truly global challenge) Burns DN et al. Clin Infect Dis. 2010; 15;51(6):725-731

HRH Crisis in LMICs… World maps resized by population, burden of disease, density of medical schools, and density of workforce Frenk J et al. Lancet. 2010;376(9756):1923-1958

in Resource-rich countries, too… Top Challenge Recruiting HIV Primary Care Providers Reported by Ryan White CARE Act Programs (%) Hauschild BC et al. Ann Forum Collab HIV Res. 2011;13:1-9

Mct delivery of integrated care(“HIV MCTsWorK”… at least in Chicago!) • METHOD: Retrospective analysis of clinical data sets on 2,647 patients at the CORE Center, Chicago, from 1997-1998 • CONCLUSIONS: Our findings validate the multidisciplinary team model of HIV care, and suggest that health services that are tailored to the express needs of patients lead to better care and improved health outcomes.

And in LIMCs?(in this case, South africa…) Changes in mean percentage of eligible HIV+ mothers (A) receiving AZT >2 weeks before labor, and (B) on ART at time of delivery in labor ward (p <0.001) showing effects of QI interventions, protocol change, and resource reallocation. Youngelson MS et al. PLoS One. 5(11):e13891

Why is this All important? ENROLL IN CARE Treat Maintain viral suppression TEST HIV Positive Adopt safer behaviors Initiation of ART Testing Adherence to ART Positive Prevention Linkage to care Decrease in HIV Transmission Courtesy of Wafaa El-Sadr (6th International Conference on HIV Treatment and Prevention Adherence)
