TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for infectious diseases clinicians and other HIV treaters, as well as primary care providers (PCPs) and other community stakeholders involved in the care of patients with HIV infection.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
PREAMBLE
• Help patients achieve viral suppression quickly after HIV diagnosis to optimize long-term patient outcomes and reduce the risk of HIV transmission • Select appropriate regimens for same-day ART or expedited ART based on current efficacy and safety data • Implement strategies designed to overcome barriers to the provision of rapid ART to patients with newly diagnosed HIV infection
STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Best practice recommendations for treatment of patients infected with HIV are continually evolving and now include strategies related to early initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART).1 The results of pivotal clinical trials have demonstrated not only the benefits of early and continuous ART for long-term health outcomes in people living with HIV,2,3 but also a profound decrease in HIV transmission.4 Same-day HIV diagnosis and treatment approaches have been developed to minimize the rate of attrition that occurs in the interval between diagnosis and initiation of ART, and to address the barriers that often lead to delayed treatment.5 Although the body of literature documenting the success and feasibility of same-day–start protocols is growing,6 most HIV-care clinicians are not fully aware of the benefits of these strategies, and even fewer provide patients with an opportunity to initiate rapid, same-day ART regimens. Geared to the needs of HIV-specialist clinicians, this HIV Experts and Evidence™ live meeting series will present updates to the national HIV elimination goals, review recent data related to rapid ART initiation, and offer solutions to logistical and clinical barriers that can impede patient access to appropriate same-day ART regimens for new HIV infections.
