Reasons for ART discontinuation • 38% - Death • late presentation • 30% - Clinical decision, toxicity or unwillingness to continue ART • inadequate treatment preparedness • poor counselling on ARTand support of adherene • clinical decision to stop ART because of illicit drug use • Insufficient clinical management of treatment side effects • 21% - Unknown/other reasons • 11% - Lost to follow up

  11. Conclusions • Health systems have to improve their performance in provision of treatment and care for PLHIV • There is a need to develop user-friendly services • There is an urgent need to increase the coverage with HIV care of those PLHIV already known to the health systems • There is a need for earlier HIV diagnosis and enrolment into care • There is a need to improve HIV case management ensuring continuum of careand adherence to ART • Electronic patient monitoring systemshould be introduced at clinical level
