Differentiated community-based point-of-care early infant diagnosis to improve HIV diagnosis and ART initiation among infants and young children in Zambia
INTRODUCTION: An estimated 800 000 children (<15 years) globally living with HIV remain undiagnosed. To reach these children with timely HIV testing services during infancy, we implemented a community-based differentiated care model using mobile point-of-care (POC) technology for early infant diagnosis (EID) of HIV, and assessed its effects on EID positivity, antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation and 3-month retention in care. METHODS: Between …
Hypertension among persons living with HIV—Zambia, 2021; A cross-sectional study of a national electronic health record system
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which is a common cause of death in Zambia. Data on hypertension prevalence in Zambia are scarce and limited to specific geographic areas and/or populations. We measured hypertension prevalence among persons living with HIV (PLHIV) in Zambia using a national electronic health record (EHR) system. We did a cross-sectional study of hypertension prevalence among PLHIV aged ≥18 years dur…
