  3. Care Continuum Methodology, New HIV Diagnoses 2011, Fulton County • Adults and adolescents are those aged >= 13 years • Diagnosed between 01/01/11-12/31/11 • Alive at least 15 months after diagnosis • Residence of diagnosis Fulton County, current address Georgia • Excludes 10 persons deceased within 15 months of diagnosis • Linked to care = CD4 or VL within 3 months of diagnosis, excluding day of diagnosis • Engaged in care >= 1 CD4 or VL 4-15 months after diagnosis • Retained in care >= 2 CD4 or VL at least 3 months apart 4-15 months after diagnosis • Estimated percentage prescribed ART derived from the Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) Georgia sample • Viral suppression (VS) = VL<200 copies/ml in most recent viral load • All percentages are percent of total number of persons diagnosed with HIV

  4. HIV Care Continuum Methodology Months 4-15 after diagnosis Months 0-3 after diagnosis HIV Confirmatory Diagnosis Date CD4 or Viral Load CD4 or Viral Load CD4 or Viral Load Last viral load <200 copies/ml • This person is: • Linked YES • Engaged YES • Retained YES • Virally suppressed YES

  5. HIV Care Continuum Methodology Months 4-15 after diagnosis Months 0-3 after diagnosis HIV Confirmatory Diagnosis Date CD4 or Viral Load CD4 or Viral Load Last viral load undetectable • This person is • Linked YES • Engaged YES • Retained NO • Virally suppressed YES • “Engaged in care” is minimal engagement that indicates the person “touched” the medical system at least once during that 12 month period

  6. HIV Care Continuum Methodology Months 4-15 after diagnosis Months 0-3 after diagnosis HIV Confirmatory Diagnosis Date CD4 or Viral Load CD4 done but no viral load done • This person is • Linked NO • Engaged YES • Retained YES • Virally suppressed NO • If no viral load done, it is assumed to be not suppressed

  7. Adults and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection, Fulton County, 2011 Adults and adolescents >= age 13, diagnosed 01/01/11 -12/31/11, Fulton County = 726 Linked to care = CD4 or VL within 3 months of diagnosis Engaged in care >= 1 CD4 or VL 4-15 months after diagnosis Retained in care >= 2 CD4 or VL at least 3 months apart 4-15 months after diagnosis Prescribed ART derived from MMP sample Viral suppression (VS) = VL<200 copies/ml in most recent viral load = 319 Note: all percentages are percent of total number of persons diagnosed with HIV in category

  8. Adults and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection, by race/ethnicity, Fulton County 2011 Adults and adolescents >= age 13, diagnosed 01/01/11 - 12/31/11, Fulton County = 726 Linked to care = CD4 or VL within 3 months of diagnosis Engaged in care >= 1 CD4 or VL 4-15 months after diagnosis Retained in care >= 2 CD4 or VL at least 3 months apart 4-15 months after diagnosis Viral suppression (VS) = VL<200 copies/ml in most recent viral load American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islanders combined equal <2% of new diagnoses and are included in Other/Unknown

  10. Transmission category definitions • Multiple imputation was used to re-distribute transmission category where missing • MSM = Male to male sexual contact • IDU = Injection drug use • MSM/IDU = Male to male sexual contact and injection drug use • HET = Heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection • Other = hemophilia, blood transfusion, perinatal exposure, and risk factor not reported or not identified

  11. Adult and adolescent males diagnosed with HIV infection, by transmission category*, Fulton County, 2011 Adult and adolescent males >= age 13, diagnosed 01/01/11 - 12/31/11, Fulton County = 608 Linked to care = CD4 or VL within 3 months of diagnosis Engaged in care >= 1 CD4 or VL 4-15 months after diagnosis Retained in care >= 2 CD4 or VL at least 3 months apart 4-15 months after diagnosis Viral suppression (VS) = VL<200 copies/ml in most recent viral load Multiple imputation was used to re-distribute transmission category where missing *MSM = Male to male sexual contact IDU = Injection drug use MSM/IDU = Male to male sexual contact and injection drug use HET = Heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection Other = hemophilia, blood transfusion, perinatal exposure, and risk factor not reported or not identified

  15. The HIV Care Continuum can help us… • Focus our efforts for linkage, retention and viral suppression. • Identify groups at increased risk for dropping out of each step in the continuum. • Monitor our progress in improvement of linkage, retention, and viral suppression. • Identify disparities not only in prevalence but in care • Evaluate efforts addressing specific populations with low viral suppression. • Monitor efforts in improving viral suppression in specific counties, census tracts, zip codes and some specific facilities • Encourage improvement in surveillance data completeness (race, sex, transmission category)

  16. Stage of HIV disease at diagnosis • Stage at diagnosis is defined by the first CD4 done within 3 months of diagnosis Stage 1 = CD4 >=500 Stage 2 = CD4 200-499 Stage 3 = CD4 <200 or OI • Stage at diagnosis is unknown if no CD4 done within 3 months of diagnosis

  25. Limitations • Incomplete reporting • Missing data for race/ethnicity, sex, and complete address at diagnosis • Lack of transmission category information • Definition of heterosexual transmission (sexual contact with a known HIV infected partner or person with increased risk, i.e., MSM or IDU) • Missing laboratory reports • CD4 within 3 and 12 months of diagnosis yields high unknown stage in Fulton County and Georgia overall

  26. Uncertainties • Populations for which data are missing may be fundamentally different • How to obtain data for transgender category • How to improve completeness of reporting • Data on ART use • Understanding barriers to ART adherence • Prioritizing further research

  27.
