  13. Opportunistic Infection Rates Examine adverse events for 405,969 persons with co-occurring HIV, mental illness and controls Calculate rates of opportunistic infections over an 11 year period Identify types of opportunistic infections that differentially affect HIV+ persons with mental illness

  14. Conclusions Persons with co-morbid HIV and SMI have much higher rates of OI than any other group Three clusters of OIs are identifiable and have different patterns for HIV/SMI AIDS-defining OIs are lower for HIV/SMI, perhaps reflecting greater mortality before reaching very low levels of immune functioning

  15. Discarded Blood Study • This study identified previously undetected infectious disease among persons with serious mental illness. • Observational-naturalistic methods were used to simulate universal screening among 588 adult psychiatric patients • Laboratory results showed that 10% of patients had HIV, 32% had Hepatitis B

  16. a Abstracted clinical data was gathered from a review of admission history, physical examinations, physician-ordered laboratory results, standardized nursing assessment forms and discharge summaries, and electronic records of all inpatient and outpatient services rendered in the year before admission. Laboratory testing involved physician-ordered laboratory blood tests and laboratory blood tests conducted for the purposes of this study (simulated universal screening). b The number of positive laboratory test results for diabetes is less than the number based on history, which suggests that metabolic conditions were well controlled at the time of admission or that patients may have given a false positive history.

  17. Recommendations • Make rapid HIV testing routinely available in Community Mental Health Settings • Screen for Blood-borne Infections routinely in inpatient settings • Integrate teaching condom skills, HIV risk reduction, and positive sexuality curricula into ongoing treatment • Consider the use of Peer Specialists to deliver HIV prevention messages • Integrate medication adherence interventions into ongoing care for HIV+ persons with mental illness
