  1. Retention in HIV Medical Care orThe Gorilla by Thomas P. Giordano, MD, MPH Baylor College of Medicine DeBakey VA Medical Center Thomas Street Health Center Houston, TX

  2. Objectives • Review the importance of retention in HIV care • Learn approaches to measuring retention in care suitable for routine HIV care • Learn approaches to improving retention in care suitable for routine HIV care • Review studies underway focused on retention in HIV care

  3. Cases • Mr. W: 28 year-old Black man • Diagnosed with HIV in late 1998 • CNS toxoplasmosis, wasting, dementia, CMV esophagitis • CD4 cell count = 6 • Mr. T: 26 year-old Black man • Diagnosed with HIV while in Ben Taub in 1999 • Pulmonary tuberculosis • CD4 cell count = 265

  4. Which patient is still alive today? Rembrandt, The Raising of Lazarus, c. 1630

  5. Audience Response: What proportion of return patients to your clinic fail to attend their scheduled visit (“no show”)? • 0-10% • 11-20% • 21-30% • 31-40% • 41-50% • > 50%

  6. Prevalence and impact of poor retention in care

  7. The HIV Treatment Cascade

  8. The HIV Treatment Cascade 80% 77% 66% 89% 77%

  9. The HIV Treatment Cascade 72% 28%

  11. Retention in care and mortality(n=2619) Giordano, CID 2007, 44:1493

  12. Retention in Care and Mortality(n=2619) Adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, baseline CD4 cell count, HAART use, hepatitis C virus coinfection, non-HIV-related comorbidity score, alcohol abuse, hard drug use, and social instability. Giordano, CID 2007, 44:1493

  13. Missed Visits and Mortality a Cox proportional hazards (PH) analysis also adjusts for sex, insurance, race/ethnicity, depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse, and substance abuse. Mugavero et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:248-56

  15. Measuring Retention in Care

  17. Adherence *All can be misinterpreted if patients unknowingly transferred care elsewhere, were incarcerated, or died. Giordano TP (2012) Measuring retention in HIV care. www.medscape.com.

  18. Persistence or Constancy *All can be misinterpreted if patients unknowingly transferred care elsewhere, were incarcerated, or died. Giordano TP (2012) Measuring retention in HIV care. www.medscape.com.

  19. Audience Response: Epistemology is: • The study of letters • The study of how we know • The study of urine • “Damn it Giordano, I’m a doctor, not a philosopher!”

  22. Why don’t people stay in HIV care? • If untreated, HIV is fatal • Good treatments are available • Why would you not avail yourself of them?

  23. Audience Response: If you heat water past a certain point, you will see a substance rising from the water. That substance is: • Smoke from the water burning • Water in the gaseous phase

  24. Audience Response: If you heat wood past a certain point, you will see a substance rising from the wood. That substance is: Smoke from the wood burning Wood in the gaseous phase

  25. Why don’t people stay in HIV care? • If untreated, HIV is fatal • Good treatments are available • Why would you not avail yourself of them? Patients don’t “know” it the way we do

  26. Why don’t people stay in HIV care? • Disease severity • Lower perceived need for care • Fewer non-HIV comorbidities • Psycho-social characteristics • Substance use and mental health problems • Low perceived benefits of care (trust, past experiences) • Less social support • Stigma, fear and denial • Low literacy • System factors • Less ancillary services / greater unmet need (housing, transportation) • Confusing health care systems (transitions, multiple programs) • No or inadequate insurance • Cost (out-of-pocket, lost wages, opportunity) Patients don’t “know” it the way we do

  36. Recommendations: Entry into/Retention in Care • Systematic monitoring of successful entry into HIV care is recommended for all individuals diagnosed with HIV (II A). • Systematic monitoring of retention in HIV care is recommended for all patients (II A). • Brief, strengths-based case management for individuals with a new HIV diagnosis is recommended (II B). • Intensive outreach for individuals not engaged in medical care within 6 months of a new HIV diagnosis may be considered (III C). • Use of peer or paraprofessional patient navigators may be considered (III C).

  37. Audience Response: In what proportion of patient encounters do you discuss ART medication adherence? • 0-20% • 21-40% • 41-60% • 61-80% • 81-100%

  38. Audience Response: In what proportion of patient encounters do you discuss the importance of adherence to clinic visits? • 0-20% • 21-40% • 41-60% • 61-80% • 81-100%

  39. Audience Response: Imagine you missed your last dental cleaning and it has been a year. I’m your dentist. I tell you, “You know, your really need to get your teeth cleaned every 6 months. Bad things could happen to your teeth if you don’t. They might even fall out.” This statement from me makes you feel: • More knowledgeable • Guilty and imperfect • More motivated • Mad, like you are being treated like a child

  40. Given Accurate Adherence Data, How Do Physicians Talk To Their Patients? Data to provider included: MEMS and SR adherence; reminder use; reasons for missed doses; beliefs about ART; alcohol and drug use; and depression Two routine office visits per subject Wilson JAIDS 2010; 53:338

  41. Given Accurate Adherence Data, How Do Physicians Talk To Their Patients? • Adherence dialogue increased • Little problem solving • Most was “directive” • Adherence no different Wilson JAIDS 2010; 53:338
