Trends in Follow-Up Visits Among People Living With HIV: Results From the TREAT Asia and Australian HIV Observational Databases

Less frequent follow-up visits may reduce the burden on people living with HIV (PLHIV) and health care facilities. We aimed to assess trends in follow-up visits and survival outcomes among PLHIV in Asia and Australasia. PLHIV enrolled in TREAT Asia HIV Observational Database (TAHOD) or Australian HIV Observational Database (AHOD) from 2008 to 2017 were included. Follow-up visits included laboratory testing and clinic visit dates. Visit rates and survival were analyzed using repeated measure Poisson regression and competing risk regression, respectively. Additional analyses were limited to stable PLHIV with viral load
