Exploring, Predicting, and Intervening on Long-term Viral Suppression Electronically

RecruitingNA

Sponsor: University of California, Los Angeles

Conditions: HIV Infections

Interventions: EPI LOVE

Countries: United States

Despite the widespread availability of effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) in the United States, there remains significant numbers of people living with HIV (PLWH) who fail to achieve and or maintain viral suppression (VS). Disparities persist with the lowest levels of VS among Black individuals, people who use drugs, youth ages 18-24 and people residing in rural areas. Investigators will examine the syndemics underlying these outcomes including substance use, mental health, and barriers to HIV care including racial discrimination, stigma and rural isolation.
