EPIDEMIOLOGY

Why is the HIV Population Graying?
• With the advent of successful anti-retroviral therapies, adults 50 and older will be the majority of people living with HIV in the U.S. by 20151
• However, part of this growth is new infections, with adults 50+ accounting for approximately 11% of all new HIV infections

A National Trend
The Challenges of Success; Aging, HIV & Multimorbity
18
Background• People with HIV on HAART are being treated
successfully as evidenced by viral suppression• However, those who are ageing with the virus are
experiencing a variety of non-HIV/AIDS conditions• AIDS-defining conditions are becoming less
common• CD4 t-cell counts are still related to morbidity and
mortality in this population i.e., those with low CD4 counts and high viral load
more likely to experience both AIDS-defining and non-AIDS defining health problems
19
Prevalence of Co-morbidities
• Data obtained from Research on Older Adults with HIV (ROAH) Adults 50 and older living with HIV (n = 914) Average age of 55.5 years Approximately one-third are women Fifty-percent African-American/Black, 33% Latino
• Living with HIV 12.6 years on average• 85% on HAART• 51% with AIDS diagnosis• 67% identified as heterosexual

Depression (52%)
• The most frequently reported comorbid condition
• Depression is often related to:• Prior history of depression• Presence of physical illness• Comorbid psychiatric and substance
use issues• Chronic stress• History of trauma/abuse• HIV stigma• Loneliness and Social Isolation
24
Depression Assessment in ROAH
• Depressive symptomatology measured with the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D; Radloff, 1977)
• CES-D: 20-item self-report scale referring to symptoms experienced in the previous week; 4 items are reverse coded to prevent response-bias
• Responses scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (rarely or none of the time) to 3 (most or all of the time)
• Items are summed to obtain a total score with range of 0 to 60; higher scores indicate greater level of depressive symptoms (α = .90 for ROAH sample)

32
What is Patient Retention• Retention in care is
typically measured in three ways: A) Missed appointments B) Medical visits at
regular intervals C) Combination of A & B
Horstman, E., Brown, J., Islam, F., Buck, J., & Agins, B. D. (2010). Retaining HIV-infected patients in care: Where are we? Clinical Infectious Diseases, 50, 752-761.
33
Why is Care Retention Important?
• HIV patients in regular care are more likely to adhere to HAART Non-adherence to HAART linked to poor health
outcomes as well as the development of treatment-resistant strains of HIV
• High prevalence of multi-morbidity warrants regular engagement with health providers and screening to detect conditions early
• Keeping HIV-patients engaged in care is cost effective due to fewer emergency room visits and hospitalizations
34
Are HIV+ Patients in Care?• Missed appointment rates are 25% to 30%
regardless of which types of appointments are included
• Proportion of HIV patients missing at least one appointment is 25% to 44% depending on time frame
• Average rate of retention in New York State was 72%, ranging from 20% to 100% in ambulatory clinics based on self-report (NYS DOH)
• Continuum Engagement Model research finds: Regular users (25%) Sporadic users (32%) Non-engagers (43%)
35
Clinical Retention Factors:• Poorer retention is associated with:
1. Higher CD4 cell counts2. Not having an AIDS diagnosis (i.e., CD4 < 200
or presence of opportunistic infection)3. Detectable Viral Load and AIDS defining CD4
count• While seemingly contradictory, patients may
skip appointments if they are feeling well (1 & 2) or if they are ill (3)
• Poor health may be due to missed appointments in a reciprocal manner
36
Other Retention Factors• Other factors related to poor retention:
History or current injection drug use Low perceived social support Less engagement with health care provider Shorter follow-up after initial appointment Unemployment Mental/psychiatric illness Child care Transportation Hospitalization “Other” (i.e., forgot, last minute social engagement,
etc.)
37
Benefits of Care Retention
• Keeping HIV+ Patients in Care has been found to: Increase access to ARVs Improve Treatment Adherence Suppression of Viral Load Improved Immune Function Less Drug Resistance Reduced Health Care Costs (i.e., fewer ER and
Inpatient visits) Less Risky Sexual Behavior Improved Survival Rates
38
National Minority AIDS Council's Model for HIV prevention and care *
• Model is to move PLWHA along the treatment cascade so that 81% of people living with HIV in the U.S. know their HIV status and have a suppressed viral load
• This model asks Health Departments and Community Based Organizations (CBOs) to: Identify people who do not know they are HIV positive
Increase linkage to and retention of PLWHA in high-quality care
Improve treatment adherence among PLWHA to achieve a suppressed viral load* based on modeling done by Dr. David Holtgrave

Optimal Wellness Through Care Retention: Federal and
State Efforts

in+care (http://www.incarecampaign.org)• National campaign for Ryan White grantees
supported by HRSA HIV/AIDS Bureau in coordination with the National Quality Center
• Goal is to support and provide resources to providers seeking to improve care retention: Data collection and reporting Webinars One-on-one coaching Local retention groups led by local quality
champions Partners in+care consumer education
42
NY Links
• Supported by a Special Project of National Significance award to New York State to address system linkages and care access for those with HIV Goal is to develop and disseminate effective
linkage and retention models Community-level improvement approach Outcome of better health for people with HIV
and reduced HIV transmission• Other SPNS Grantees for this project

Depression, Treatment Adherence & Care
45
Co-occurence1
• A triple diagnosis (HIV + mental illness + substance use) impairs a person’s well-being and quality of life significantly
• Patients with triple diagnosis often have higher levels of distress and physical impairment compared to individuals with no diagnosis, or a psychiatric, or a substance use disorder alone (Lyketsos, et al., 1994)
• The interaction between the mental health and substance abuse problems escalate both the level of risk, and the severity of HIV (Stoff et al., 2004)1 HIV Integrated Care at: http://www.apa.org/pi/aids/programs/bssv/integration.aspx
46
Substance Use Complicates HIV Care• Substance and alcohol use among persons
living with HIV is associated with: other mental health issues like depression
(Pence et al.) poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy
(Chesney, 2000; Ware et al., 2005) greater risk for HIV infection (Leigh & Stall, 1993;
Semaan et al., 2002)• Alcohol and substance use can decrease the
efficacy of antiretroviral therapy (Michel, Carrieri, Fugon et al., 2010)
47
Substance Use in ROAH• ROAH respondents
were asked about current and lifetime use of tobacco, alcohol and other substances
48
ROAH: Tobacco Use
• Tobacco use is associated with increased rates of cardiac disease, respiratory conditions, and cancers
• Smoking cessation efforts are needed to insure optimal wellness for those who use tobacco and are aging with HIV

Treat the Person, Not the Disease• Successful care of those with triple diagnosis requires a
holistic approach provided by an interdisciplinary, culturally sensitive clinical team (i.e., case managers, social workers, medical providers, counselors or therapists, and psychiatrists)
• Optimally, medical, dual diagnosis, and psychosocial services should be easily accessible at the same location.
• Integrated care should include: Access to ancillary services; Deliver multidisciplinary provider collaboration; Client-centered approach; and, Incorporates substantial efforts to connect patients to case
management services to address a variety of psychosocial needs (homelessness, poverty, and treatment adherence)
